Casa de los Angelitos - The Baby House

On the mornings that we don't have any assignments, we got to the baby house for some sweet fun! There are about twelve little ones. The house parents have an awesome system going.

It's breakfast time in the baby house. Cereal is kind of a serious thing around here.



Before eating, they say, "Hands up! Hands down! Hands together!" The babies follow instructions and a simple prayer of thanksgiving is said. Then they go to town!



Sometimes, the kids are a little fussy. A perfect solution to the problem is Mimi acting like an absolute fool!!! There are little songs that Mimi sings with the most exaggerated gestures. While they may not know exactly what is going on, you can tell they are all thinking, WHAT IN THE WORLD IS SHE DOING!?!?


Going on walks with them is an adventure! There is only a few of them that are able to walk on their own. We walk to the soccer fields, play on swings, kick around balls, and finish the fun with a little picnic under the tree.


On the days that we don't go on walks, we stick to the front yard where is a plethora of TOYS - giant bouncy balls, scooters, jumperoos, and everyone's favorite...the trampoline! You may think, " A trampoline? For babies?" Yes- and they absolutely love it! The one year olds jump in the middle providing the perfect amount of bounce for the younger ones sitting on the edge.


Everyone needs to come experience this FUN!
