Merry month of MAY!

Wow, what a month we are having and will have! We started off the month with a wonderful field trip to the local park! The kids had a terrific time playing there, although the wind was pretty strong , it didn’t stop us from fun!!

We will be having 2 set field trips this month: to the Denver Zoo and the Children’s Museum. We will also have a possible park trip again. Forms are going to be send out in the backpacks.

Reminder that Learning Center’s last day is  FRIDAY MAY 28th.  There is no childcare provided after this date.  We will resume again August 2010. The information will be mailed out for enrollment for the fall of 2010-2011, if you are considering childcare make sure you sign up early!

Any questions feel free to email me! thanks

February News for the Learning Center:

The Learning Center celebrate their valentine’s

Day party on Feb. 11th. It went very well the kids

enjoyed making homemade frosting to go with

sugar heart cookies.

We read a story called “Valentine Mice” and we also

made a picture of a mouse out of paper hearts.

We played a fun game in the common area with

the paper hearts by trying to catch a heart when

we were cued to.

The day was full of many games and fun

activities!

Thank you for one “mom” to help  for the

day!  This was very helpful.

The kids had a awesome day!

The kids came back from being off for

president’s day to a new theme for the

classroom. The new theme is

 ”Community Helpers!”

Here are some pictures of the new centers:
