APRIL ACTIVITIES
Happy April! Our theme this month is “Digging in the Dirt”. We’ll plant some wild flower seeds in our planter and watch them grow! Allow the children to play in the dirt because life is too short to have clean fingers.
It’s beginning to get warm. The children enjoy running and playing outside in our newly remodeled outdoor play area. 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 Recess is April 18th and 21st. We are open as usual those days. Parents, enjoy some extra time with your children if you can!
Our Center will participate in the State Wide Earthquake Drill on April 17th. We will review and update our Disaster Plan. This is a good opportunity for parents to talk to their children about earthquake safety and review their home disaster plan.
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.
Congratulations:
Our center and several of our classroom teachers have achieved a High Quality rating from Utah’s Child Care Quality System.
Our center and several of our teachers also achieved the All Means All Award for intentionally promoting an environment where all children are respected, valued, encouraged, and included.
Thanks to all of our teachers and staff for your hard work and dedication. We love you.
Child Development Thoughts
Young children are influenced by what they see on television. So limit your child’s TV time and try to avoid advertisements. Make sure that what your child watches is right for their age.
Most importantly, keep the whole family active by making time for active play every day. Our area features year-round outdoor recreational activities. We have numerous parks in our area, with a variety of activities. With proximity to several state parks, to Zion National Park, and to the Grand Canyon, opportunities are unlimited to enjoy the great Utah outdoors.
