| June/July 2005 Special Days in June June 2 - Jacob turns 1 June 17 - Sydnie turns 4 June 19 - Father�s Day June 21 - First Day of Summer Special Days in July July 4 - Independence Day July 6 - Alexis turns 4 Summer Activities With lower enrollment during the summer we will be out and about on the town visiting parks and running errands. I will try to let you know in advance when we are going to be out and about, but sometimes it is just spontaneous. Reminder also, to PLEASE close the front door at pick ups and drop offs when the air conditioning is on. I would appreciate everyone helping to ensure the door is closed behind you. Thank you! Sunscreen A reminder to apply sunscreen in the a.m. BEFORE arrival. I will reapply in the afternoon as they awake from p.m. naps. Vacation If you have dates for any upcoming vacations, please let me know so that I can mark them on the calendar. At this time, my family does not have anything planned. Although, I do expect to take some time off in July and again in August for the KC BBQ. I will let you know as soon as Randy and I confirm these dates. Trainings Better Child Care Grains and Breads- 4 hours Better Child Care April Newsletter - 30 minutes Overview of Creative Curriculum and the Project Approach- 2 hours Creative Curriculum In the last newsletter I shared with you how blocks are important learning tools for children. One of the children�s favorites is dramatic play. I have shared many stories with you in their journals on the characters the girls have all portrayed. You will find information attached on the benefits of dramatic play in children�s lives. I do have a lot of dramatic play furniture and equipment. My idea is to work together on making occupational prop boxes. I am not asking anyone to go to a lot of expense on this, just things that might work that you have lying around the house. Attached is a sheet with examples of some prop boxes and materials we could include in the prop boxes. The kids will love it and get so much enjoyment out of it. Please see attached sheets for information on how different ages grow developmentally through dramatic play. New Items at Daycare I thought parents might find this interesting to see how I continually invest in the daycare. I will try to continue to add this to the newsletters. Fisher Price Pop Onz Blocks ABC/123 Flash Card Teething Rings Looms and materials for making pot holders A Day at the Zoo Wipe Off Activity Cards, (donated by the Haskins family) Books No Matter What Ruby in Her Own Time Bug Safari Puddles Wake Up, It�s Spring Little Quacks Hide and Seek A Big Fat Enormous Lie The Loose Tooth I Did It, I�m Sorry Seven New Board Books for the infants/toddlers What Makes a Rainbow? Monkey Steam Train Crocodile School Bus Holiday Hippo Boat Jumbo Elephant Plane Who Am I Pets On the Farm Days off/Closed for Vacation I will send a note home soon with vacation day schedules and upcoming closings. |
