 Weekly Recap:  We LOVED celebrating Valentine's Day together!  A great BIG THANK YOU to our Room Parents for organizing such a wonderful Valentine's Day Party and amazing Goodie Bags!  We loved learning about two of our greatest Presidents as well as learning all about Noah's Ark and dental health!  Be sure to ask your little one to sing you the Tooth Brushing Song they learned this week!!

A Sneak Peek at Our Upcoming Week:  It's so hard to believe that we are already at the end of February!  We will be finishing up our February themes as well as continuing to work on our Weather Unit with a focus on the clouds this week!

Baby Wipes Donations Needed:  Thank you so much for all of your beginning of the year donations of wipes and tissues.  We are currently running low on baby wipes and would appreciate any donations from our families.  Our little munchkins clean their hands with them throughout the day so you can just imagine how many we go through!  Thank you in advance for your support.  👐

Special Days:   🌈Rainbow and Pajama Days🧸 are coming up soon!  Please see "Dates to Remember" Section below for more details.

Easter Hat Parade:  Easter is in April this year and so is our Annual PreK Easter Hat Celebration!  Time to get out the Peeps, plastic eggs, flowers, bunny ears and your hot glue gun!!  It's your time to shine in creating the most amazing Easter Hat with your little honey bunny!  You can be as simple or elaborate as you'd like.  I'm sure your little cutie will be proud to wear whatever you create together!  Please see the notice that will be coming home in your child's folder in the upcoming weeks for more details.  (I thought I'd give everyone an early heads-up since the dollar stores are already full of Easter items!  At this rate, by Easter they will probably be full of Halloween things lol.)
