ANOTHER GREAT KINDERGARTEN RODEO

We had our annual Kindergarten Rodeo.  The first thing that we do is to get our picture taken with the Rodeo Queen candidates and some Rodeo Clowns.  What fun!  The queen candidates told us a little about themselves, and the clowns told the kids about protecting the other cowboys.

OVER THE RIVER

A great jump over the river.   We used a couple of jump ropes and started out with the ropes about a foot apart.  We widened the river after all of the class had a chance to jump over. We got those ropes pretty far apart by the end. Great jumpers!

JUST MADE IT

A good landing!  They can jump on the rope and still get another try.

Jumping over the river!

WITH A LITTLE HELP FROM A FRIEND

Getting ready to jump over the river.  This Rodeo Queen is helping a couple of the students.

HAPPY TO BE A WINNER

BUCKING BULLS

This event is always a crowd pleaser. The kids pretend that they are riding a bucking bull.  It is a relay also.

Ready, set , go

Get ready to bounce!

Mopping up the balls!

This event involved getting a mop and trying to get a ball into a basket.  Not all that easy!

MOPPING UP

HANGING OUT THE WASH

At this station, the children are hanging up the wash.  All of the events are basically relays, but it really doesn't matter who wins!

A picnic at the ballpark.

We all had a sack lunch at the end of the events.

Cool Down

At the end of the Rodeo, several teachers get out the squirt guns and surprise the kids!  They love it!
