September Back to school time is here. In our new class we have a month of exciting new things.  We are enjoying the last few days of summer. So lots of  activities are planned this week.  We are learning about animal; its fun and a great way for toddlers to learn new animal sound. One important thing this month is our week on “About Me”.  This gets the family involved with the toddler and the toddlers class experiences.  Each month we will introduce a new shape and color.  This month is Grandparent Day; special gift will be made for grandparents to treasure.

October For the preparation of Fall this month we play a lot of pretend games to get the toddler to determine what is real and what is pretend.  Doctor office will be played this month in a fun setting to help ease the children with real doctor visits.

Tucks and cars are being talked about this month too.

Come join us at the baby races where each child will race a car.  This helps in the fine motor skill department.  Open house will be this month, we are looking forward to showing you how far are class has come.

November Fall is approaching so we will be bundling up and looking at all the great things fall has to offer, the leaves and most important Thanksgiving.  This is a great time to talk about sharing, friends and family.  This month we will also be discussing animals. As a teacher with a passion for animals, I will be talking about animals that need our help. Who knows maybe we have a future little wildlife expert in the making.

December Because Christmas is a time of giving we are talking about how people around the world celebrate Christmas.  This month we will be eating a lot of different foods.  So we will be talking about how to keep our bodies healthy.  Because Christmas is a time when we see different family members, we will be sharing extended families.  We will also have a class Christmas party.  We encourage our families to come and join us for a celebration.
