In a flash, it seems as though the first part of our school year has zipped past us and we are already getting ready for the holidays. Here at our preschool, we are excited to be learning about and celebrating many types of holiday traditions including Hanukkah, Kwanzaa, and Christmas! If there is a tradition that your family has, please share it with our teachers so that we can include it in our classrooms.

Don't forget to send warm clothes for our daily adventures on the playground! Warm coats, hats, mittens and boots help the children enjoy our outdoor explorations. Snow pants, or even rain pants over clothes, certainly help keep the children dry while on the playground equipment such as slides, swings, and bouncy vehicles.
