MARCH ACTIVITIES
Let’s jump in our hot air balloon and go “Up in the Sky” as we explore our theme for the month of March. We will be talking about clouds, rain, birds, and planets. We will also be talking about some of the rare lunar events that will happen this month!
Spring is just around the corner. We are looking forward to warmer days and more time outside. Our Nature Explore Outdoor Classroom gives the children opportunities to have “hands on” experience exploring nature and using their creativity to build and create. We take the children outside every day, weather permitting.
Each child should have a water bottle, 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. Parents, as you arrive at the center, take your child’s belongings to the classroom and put them to away to avoid loss and illness. This will also help keep your child’s supplies from getting lost and/or mixed up.
Take the time to check your child’s note for any items they may need. With the change of seasons, it is a good time to clean out cubbies and take home items that are no longer needed home.
Do not bring your child to daycare if he is not well.
Spring Break is March 10th through March 14th. We are open as usual those days. Parents, enjoy some extra time with your children if you can!
We are a nut free facility, so do not send any nuts or nut products with your child.
Please bring only water in your child’s water bottle. All toys and trading cards should be left at home.

Child Development Thoughts
Daylight Savings time is here and getting children to bed while it is still light outside can be a problem. Getting enough sleep will help children grow, stay healthy, and do well. Stick to a nightly bedtime routine. For example, a bath, brush teeth, listen to a story. Repeating the routine each night helps children recognize it’s time for sleep. Research shows that TV or video games close to bedtime can get kids wound up and keep them from sleeping.
