FEBRUARY ACTIVITIES
HAPPY VALENTINE’S DAY! This year is already flying by! Our theme this month is “Community Helpers” We will focus on how all jobs help the community. On February 18, volunteers will provide vision screenings for our preschool children. On February 24th members of the Santa Clara-Ivins Police Department and on February 26th the Fire Department will visit our center. We want to express appreciation to all of our community helpers for all they do for us. Other community helpers visit our center and provide special services for us such as CPR, First Aid and emergency preparedness training. We have lots of fun crafts and activities planned for the month. As always we will be learning letters, numbers, colors, shapes, and days of the week.
Enrollment and transportation forms need to be kept current. Children must follow transportation guidelines or we will not transport them.
Each child should have a water bottle (with water only), a change of clothes, a small blanket for quiet time, and any other supplies they need to provide for their care. All supplies should be labeled. All personal items except those listed above should be left at home. Children’s belongings should be taken to the classroom and put away to help keep them from getting lost and/or mixed up. Children should dress properly for the day’s activities.
Even though it is cold the children go outside every day the weather permits. They enjoy running and playing outside. Our Nature Explore Outdoor Classroom gives children opportunities to have “hands on” experience exploring nature and using their creativity to build and create.
CHILDREN ARE NOT ALLOWED TO ATTEND DAY CARE IF THEY ARE NOT WELL!

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.
