We hope your spring is a joyful one!

I couldn't resist sharing this picture from one of our preschoolers.

4-16-12 : Fun and Fantasy : It seems like this week is redundant. I mean, children live in a fantasy world most of the time, right? Pretend play is an important part of a child's life, and one that generally gets overlooked in today's 'plugged-in' society. Playing a fantasy game on a computer is not the same as making up the story on your own, and following through with a group of your peers. This week we will be purposefully instigating pretend play to foster their recognition of reality vs. fantasy, to encourage them to recall a plot, and to have them solve pretend problems. And we will have fun doing it!

NURSERY RHYMES: Do you remember your favorite nursery rhyme? Can you close your eyes and still see the illustration that went with it? Rhyme is an important part of pre-reading. I encourage you to share that favorite nursery rhyme with your child this week!

The summer flyer is ready to send out! You can get a sneak-peek at it on the website, http://www.readysetgrowbountiful.com/.
When you pick up your official copy, be sure to take extras for your child's friends! Summer is always better when you share it with friends!
(Plus, when a friend enrolls, you get $200 off your tuition!)
