Daycare Days: What's New!

I know that I have been behind since my computer crashed in Dec. on giving you all a newsletter and updating a calendar for you all to have. We have been staying busy singing, dancing, rhyming, reading and playing games. We have been very into board games lately and one of our favorites is the Storybook game. It is a bunch of flashcards and each person takes a turn drawing a card and then they have to make up a story about that card. It gets funnier as it goes on because you put the cards together so the stories should keep going from kid to kid. The kids are getting very creative. I love this game and it's so good for them to build their creative thinking skills and to be able to learn connections between different objects. The kids get very excited about this one.

We have also been working on our letters and numbers and shapes. January we worked on the letters M, N, O, and P and the numbers 10, 11, 12, and 13. The shape of the month was the square and the color of the month was blue. We missed our blue day, so I will be having that probably next week, but I'll update you soon. We will have a Valentines Day party on Friday the 13th of Feb. and that will be our pink day, so keep that in mind. If your child does not have something pink to wear, as my boys don't, then we can make a sign out of pink construction paper to safety pin to their shirts.

This month we will be working on more letters and numbers and the theme of the month is friendship. So we are working on building friendships and how to treat our friends.

Below is a few pictures of things we've been up to. Enjoy! I look forward to more fun this month.
