I am very pleased with the progress our new friends have made at daycare in such a short time! They are all beginning to make friends and get down the new routine! This really is a great group of kids!
For any of you have not yet met our new friends and families...here is a little bio about each!
Kahina is 3 years old. She lives with her mom, dad and brother in their home in Northeast Minneapolis. She has been taken care of by her grandma until this point, but was looking for some new friends and an educational setting! She has been a blessing to Maggie, who loves having another "big girl" to play with! Say hello to her parents, Karin and Mourad if you see them!
Kathy, Kahina's Cousin, will be four in December. She is "sharing" the spot with Kahina! They are so close with each other, so much so that they refer to each other as sisters! I have heard from so many of you parents about how they are both so beautful and I agree! Kathy is very animated and is excited to be here. She will spend Mondays and Tuesdays with us here at "school!" She lives in Columbia Heights with her parents, Farroudja and Essaid, but you will see Kahina's parents around a lot doing pick ups and drop offs for Kathy as well!
This is Levi! Levi is almost 22 months and lives with his mom, Jessica. Their home is in Crystal, but her work is just a mile or so away! He has also spent a lot of time with grandma! He is such a sweet, sensitive little guy with an adorable smile! He will make a great playmate for the new batch of boys here!
Taragi did great with us for few weeks, but due to a sudden and unexpected change in her mother's hours and job location, she will no longer be joining us at daycare. I have a few prospects lined up for the open spot, but if you know if anyone looking, feel free to give them my number!
This week we have our Music Class on Friday, from 11:00-11:30.

OCTOBER IS FIRE PREVENTION MONTH! This is a great time to double check your smoke alarms and Carbon monoxide detectors. Also take the time to discuss and practice a fire drill with your children, including an escape plan and a safe meeting spot. I am going to line up a fire truck visit at daycare for the end of the month...if only I knew a Fireman?! ;)
