Did you know…
The State of Connecticut’s Department of Public Health, our licensor, is now requiring that all children aged 6-59 months attending a daycare to receive at least one dose of influenza vaccine? By January 1, 2011 all children must be vaccinated between September 1st and December 31st of the preceding year. This means that everyone should receive the flu vaccine this year to be up to date for the following year. When you take your child for their flu vaccination be sure to ask the doctor for an updated immunization record for your child’s file. If you have any questions please ask in the office. Thank you.
Dress the children for outdoors!
As a regular part of our program we go out and play, daily in all kinds of weather. It is important for the children to get fresh air , work their large muscles and burn off energy! Each child should have labeled in their cubbies:
- A warm jacket
- Two pairs of gloves
- Two hats
- Spare warm clothes-including socks
- Underwear
Preschool’s November Theme is The Wild World of Animals!
This month the children will explore and classify a variety of animals in our environment. We will vote for snack on Election Day, celebrate the color brown, continue learning multiple math concepts through block manipulation and discover the sounds for the letters D & S. We will march in a parade on Costume Day and will prepare a side dish for our Thanksgiving feast. We will also learn about helping others by donating items for our food drive and dropping the items to the food bank.

Please help that less fortunate by donating non-perishable food items to fill our magnificent turkey. Involve your child (as age appropriate). We will take our preschool children by bus to deliver the feast to STAR 99.9 Food for Friends on Thursday, November 18th. Together we can teach the valuable lesson of helping others.
