October 2-6

Can't believe October is already here!  I think summer is officially over, so I will be sending home the swimsuits until next year!  Please also update your child's extra clothes bin as well to seasonally appropriate items.






This month we will be learning about Weather and the Changing seasons! Your children will chase the wind and discover the mystery of weather and the changes that come with the seasons. They will love pretending to twirl like tornadoes and imitate thunderclouds. Your children will make a rain stick, sort leaves and curl up like a hibernating bear in his cozy den.



Out letters for the month will be U, N and C and we will be learning the numbers 3 and 4!

Important dates for the month:
Monday, Oct 2: Travel Tots, 9am-10am
Friday Oct 13: Music Class, 10am-10:30
Monday Oct. 16: Travel Tots, 9am-10am
Wednesday, Oct 18-Friday Oct 20: Daycare closed
Monday, Oct 23: PAJAMA DAY! Come dressed in your jammies for a fun day!

I am also excited that I have a found an amazing daycare sub for during the school year.  She was a licensed daycare provider up until August when she closed her daycare to finish off her nursing degree.  She has agreed to help cover a few hours here and there when I have appointments, field trips for the kids, etc.  Her name is Tessie and she will be here this week on Friday morning for a little bit!

Menu:
Monday- Rotisserie Chicken, corn, applesauce, dinner roll and milk
Tuesday- Mini meatloafs, green beans, oranges and milk
Wednesday- Grilled Chicken Sandwiches, carrots, peaches and milk
Thursday- Tacquitos, peas, bananas and milk
Friday- Peanut butter and Jelly, oranges, mixed veggies and milk

Also, the software I use for book keeping, food program and auto pay is being updated to a different program.  The change will take effect this week so just want to give you all a heads up that you may have to log in and re-authorize your auto pay account.  I will update you once I make the change. I have heard there have been some kinks in the change over, so I have waited until the last possible make to do the update in hopes that they have them worked out by now!
