Gift certificates are available for our next Evening of Indulgence. Sip Texas wine and enjoy our chiminea outside while you wait for a turn for massage, hair touch-ups or scalp massages, and brow waxing. A relaxing night and a great way to start the weekend! Held the first Friday night of each month with the exception of January , when we'll have the EOI on the second Friday of the month, 1/9/09.
Don't forget that families who refer a new client receive a $50 child care discount the month after a friend enrolls their child!
Highlights from the Infant Room: Miss Michelle filled in for Miss Caprice today as she had a doctor's appointment.
Highlights from the Toddler Room: We've discovered that our friend Luke loves rice cakes in the morning! He and Gavin are our early birds and they like to snack first thing in the morning while combined with the "big" kids. All of the boys enjoyed practicing jumping in and out of hoops outside. They also love to roll the big red ball in the classroom.
Highlights from the Twos and PreK: Our classes were combined today, and we were busy! At Community Time we counted from 1-10 in English and Spanish, learned a new wood chopping rhyme (since we helped gather firewood on Friday), and revisited our "Way up high in the Apple Tree rhyme". We sang and danced with partners to "Oats and Beans and Barley Grow". Outside, some of us helped in the greenhouse and with animal care while others worked with compost and chopped up our Fall pumpkins to see what was inside. Lucy the Pig will enjoy this tasty snack! Also outside, we painted with blue. It was so windy that we had to hold our papers down with rocks our friends found. Then, we decided we should paint the rocks, too. (NOTE: In Preschool, some of the best fun, and a teacher's greatest delight, is the unplanned . . .)
