JANUARY ACTIVITIES
HAPPY NEW YEAR! Here’s to another wonderful year helping the children grow and meet new milestones. This month’s theme is “Happy Healthy Me.” We will be learning about different ways to keep our brains and bodies healthy through what we eat and what we do. We have lots of fun crafts and activities planned for the month. As always we will be learning letters, numbers, colors, shapes, and days of the week.
Enrollment and transportation forms need to be kept current. Children must follow transportation guidelines or we will not transport them.
Each child should have a water bottle (with water only), a change of clothes, a small blanket for quiet time, and any other supplies they need to provide for their care. All supplies should be labeled. All personal items except those listed above should be left at home. Children’s belongings should be taken to the classroom and put away to help keep them from getting lost and/or mixed up. Children should dress properly for the day’s activities.
Even though it is cold the children go outside every day the weather permits. They enjoy running and playing outside.
Our Nature Explore Outdoor Classroom gives children opportunities to have “hands on” experience exploring nature and using their creativity to build and create. .

Child Development Thoughts
Many experts in child development recommend parents set goals with their children every New Year. Not only does it help teach the power of creating goals and following through, it can help us stay accountable to our own resolutions as part of being a good parent role model. Childhood is the best time to teach how to form new habits. Keep lists short and break resolutions down into steps the child can understand and accomplish.
NOTICE:
We currently have some spaces available for children in our classrooms. Stop by for a tour and check us out. We are also accepting applications for 1 part-time afternoon classroom teacher.
