FEBRUARY ACTIVITIES
This month we will be learning about our Community Helpers, what they do, and how they can help. On February 8th, we will have helpers from the Fire Department, the Police Department, and Ambulance at our center. Community Helpers from Friends for Sight will be at our center on Feb 21st. The milkman and Child Research helpers will also visit during the month.
Our staff will receive special training in CPR and First Aid, and emergency preparedness. We appreciate our Community Helpers and all they do for us.
Remember to use hand sanitizer when you enter the building. Wash your child's hands with soap and water. Do not bring your child to daycare if he is ill. Everyone's help is appreciated to prevent the spread of illness in our center and community.
Payment is due in advance for childcare. We do not give credit for sick or unscheduled absent days.
Local schools will be out on Friday, Feb 17th and Monday, February 20th in observance of President's day.
CHILD DEVELOPMENT THOUGHTS: You can help your child learn to handle big emotions like anger, frustration, and disappointment. Work on increasing his self-control with these strategies to help him think before he acts: Talk it out (give your child words to use), Think Ahead (prepare for situations), and Calm Down (when he starts to get upset, help him find ways to keep his cool.
