Weekly Featured Theme: Little Creators

What are we learning?

Dear Dinosaurs Parents,

This week we will learn to be little creators. We will continue creating safe learning environments that offer the children the opportunity to explore, experiment and create products or inventions using a variety of recycled materials. We will make animals and also TV using boxes, create flowers using plastic bottles and mosaics using stones. We will discuss how important is to care for nature and to recycle materials. We will also talk about the animal world.

We have scheduled exciting learning activities that will allow us to continue strengthening motor and cognitive-sensory skills. Children will have fun while working on different art projects through the week such as maracas, a house, a lion, etc.

Thank you once again for all your support and for letting us play such an important role in your child’s life.

Materials for Special Projects/Activities

Have your child wear swimsuit, splashers or swim diapers and water shoes for Splash Day. Bring a towel and a plastic bag for wet items. Pack all these items in a tote bag for your child. We recommend to label the bag, swimsuit, towel and shoes with your child’s name.

Friendly Reminders

• Check your child’s cubby every Friday and take home your child’s blanket for laundry. Make sure to bring it back on Monday.
• Make sure to bring extra sets of clothing appropriate to weather.
• Sunscreen is important to protect your child because he/she is very susceptible to sunburn. Yet applying sunscreen to your child requires planning. If sunscreen must be applied to your child, make sure to fill out an administration or authorization form specifying when sunscreen should be applied and be sure to supply the sunscreen and label the sunscreen bottle with your child's name.
• Remove all your child projects completed from the cubby.
