Greetings, fantastic 1st/2nd parents!!! I hope that this blog finds you well. The little explorers have been working so hard this week! From South America, to spiders, to insects, to bats, they have been learning so much! This next week we will have the theme of pets and specifically comparing their needs to animals of the rainforest! The pumpkin patch was a blast and we are excited for this cozy season of fall! Speaking of cozy, please send your kiddos with coats! Many of you have already done so, thank you! Also, we really need those emergency kits. We have had 5 returned. If you have brought one, thanks so much. If not, please do so as soon as you can. Thank you!!
