Friendship Month

Valentines Party

Our children enjoyed a delightful morning with friends and parent helpers. We prepared and enjoyed a savory Valentines snack! We made thumbprint heart magnets to share with our family whom we love and appreciate so much. At the end of our festivities, students exchanged Valentines cards and treats with friends, while gathering around circle for a pajama story time. 

Mindful Play

At recess, our kids hit the playground with tons of excitement and stopping has sometimes become just so hard to do. Our ninjas, cats, and heroes are often so engaged in their roles that they are not paying attention. Teaching children about boundaries early on is a must and an ongoing journey.  Our new generation is spending less time outside resulting in less opportunities to practice social and gross motor skills. February is a wonderful reminder to all of us to strengthen our relationship with ourselves and others. We encourage parents to touch base with your children and talk about the importance of safety. Manners are a great place to start! 

Field-trip

Our field trip to the  Discovery Children’s Museum was a success! Our children loved exploring the exhibits on every level with all types of hands on activities for all ages to enjoy.  From interactive science galleries, as well as sliding and climbing structures, to an environmentally friendly city filled with familiar buildings and businesses. Time flew by! While some of us wanted to stay for a few more minutes, others took advantage of a snooze on the ride back!  Thank you!
