Week of May 14-18

What gorgeous weather coming up this week!  The kids love being able to be outside multiple times in a day, for longer periods of time! 
Craft time outside!

Last week we had a great time in both our classes, Music and Travel Tots. We also enjoyed a couple walks to the pond where we found some ducks!

The construction has begun FINALLY on the new bedroom, so the boys thought it was VERY neat to see the "builder man" bringing in all his tools and wood!  They also thought it was SO COOL to be able to sleep upstairs in Aidan and Logan's rooms during naptime to try to get away from the noise of a nail gun, saw...etc!

On a walk to the pond!  The kids kept calling this "our jungle!"

This week, we are going to have a fun day on Friday.  We will be going to the park in the morning to play and stay for a Picnic!  Please send a bag lunch (including beverage) for your child with his/her name on it!  We will also be celebrating Logan's 6th birthday that day!

Extra clothes are being sent home today, so please send back summer clothes ASAP as well as a swimsuit and swim diapers (if your child is not potty trained.)  I only need 2 changes of clothes.


Linnea will be here during nap time on Thursday and Erin will be here Friday afternoon this week!


MENU:
Monday- Ravioli, bread, mixed veggies, applesauce and milk
Tuesday- Grilled Cheese, oranges, corn and milk
Wednesday-Corn Dog Muffins, carrots, apples and milk
Thursday- Tacquitos, green beans, peaches and milk
Friday- BRING A BAG LUNCH!

I have also had a couple of you ask about donating a bottle of sunscreen.  I will gladly accept sunscreen donations.  The backyard is shaded most of the afternoon, but in the morning, there is tons of sun out there!  So if you are interested in donating a bottle of sunscreen to daycare that'd be great!  We go through quite a bit during the summer!

MAY NEWSLETTER


  MAY NEWSLETTER 

It’s a Jungle out there!  And we are about to get pretty wild in here!!!  The theme for this month is Jungle Jamboree!  I am sure this will be a wild and crazy month full of fun activities, crafts and some great songs!  The colors we will be working on will be blue and green and the letters are Z, G and A.  The numbers for the month are 19-20 (your older child should now be able to identify 1-20 correctly.)  and the shape is an octagon!  We will learn about jungle animals, what they eat, where they live…etc! 

Sometime this month, I will be sending home the extra clothes bins to change out the winter long pants and long sleeves for shorts and t-shirts, as well as a swim suit.  If your child is not fully potty trained, they will be required to also have swim diapers whenever we are in the pool/sprinkler.  Please send a package of those as well. One package should last the whole summer.  If you could also put your child’s initials on the tag of their clothes, that would be helpful so they don’t get mixed up!

CALENDAR FOR THE MONTH:

Wednesday, May 9- Travel Tots with Ms. Jeanette- 11:15

Friday, May 11- Music class with Tasha, 11:00

Mon. May 14- Beau’s 3rd birthday celebration!
