Welcome Mrs. Kim!! Mrs. Kim started with us on Monday and has fit right into our preschool family! We are so excited to have her join us during this great time of year,Welcome!!
 


We added 2 new chicks to our growing flock of 5! We are all very eager for the arrival of the ducks, which should come either tomorrow or Thursday! :) The preschoolers have given names to all the chickens, they are Watcher, Brownie, Daffodil, Snowball, and lastly Scaredy Cat.

 
Yesterday and today were ABSOLUTELY gorgeous out! The preschoolers (and teachers) have enjoyed going out with no snow-pants or coats on! We have been playing in the mud, the water, and on the swings! Keep this weather coming!
*Please check your preschoolers extra clothing box to see if they need pants, socks, shirts.*





Peek-a-boo!!

Southworth Park We've taken advantage of the beautiful weather that we've had over the past couple of Tuesdays and have hiked to Southworth Park for fun and adventures.  Ms. Beth, our outdoor educator, has built a fire with the kids, and we've made popcorn and hot chocolate.

A few of the second graders even joined us one day.
