APRIL ACTIVITIES
HAPPY EASTER! It’s finally Spring! We are ready for sunshine and warm weather. This month’s theme is “Digging in the Dirt.” It is time for learning about people and things that dig in the dirt, as well as things that grow in the dirt. We’ll plant some wild flower seeds in our planters and watch them grow! We will look for bugs, count rocks, and participate in various other activities that involve dirt.
Huge thanks to the Santa Clara-Ivins Fire Department for an unforgettable visit to our center last month! The kids loved exploring the trucks and equipment. Thanks for teaching us about the important work you do keeping our community safe!
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 appropriately for the day’s activities.
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.
Our Center will participate in the State Wide Earthquake Drill on April 16th at 10:15 We will review and update our Disaster Plan. This is a good opportunity for parents to talk to their children about earthquake safety and review their home disaster plan.
CHILDREN ARE NOT ALLOWED TO ATTEND DAY CARE IF THEY ARE NOT WELL!
We are a nut-free facility.
CONGRATULATIONS: Our June Bugs and our Eagles classrooms scored above the Child Care Quality System’s high-quality standards for this year’s observations. Hooray!
WELCOME ABOARD to our new teacher: Hannah. We are happy to have you here. Thanks to all of our teachers and staff for your hard work and dedication. We love you.
Our center and several of our teachers achieved the “All Means All Award” for intentionally promoting an environment where all children are respected, valued, encouraged, and included.
Child Development Thoughts
Young children are influenced by what they see on television and other electronic devices. So limit your child’s screen time and make sure that what your child watches is right for their age.
Most importantly, keep the whole family active by making time for active play every day. Our area features year-round outdoor recreational activities. We have numerous parks and trails in our area, with a variety of activities. With proximity to several State and National Parks, opportunities are unlimited to enjoy the great Utah outdoors.
NOTICE:
WE CURRENTLY HAVE OPENINGS FOR CHILDREN IN SOME OF OUR CLASSROOMS. STOP BY FOR A TOUR!
