I changed the "voting" up a bit, that seems to be working much better. I have buckets for the four choice that they put their smiley face in. The children can take their time choosing, late comers still get to vote, and it doesn't take as much time.
After our opening I get the buckets and we count the smiley faces as we put them on the graph.

I have been trying to do more "process art" instead of crafts. The kids had a great time today making their own mythical creature with lots of googly eyes, colored paper, feathers, pom-poms, yarn, scissors and glue!
I also had out a variety of toys, but the art was definitely a big hit!
