Toddler News – Week of November 10th

Hope everyone had a great weekend.  With the weather getting colder, please remember to send in hats and gloves.  We try to go outside as long as it is not below 40 degrees.  Also we will go through the extra clothes bin for your child and let you know if their clothes need to be updated for the new season.

For the next couple of weeks we will be talking about woodland animals, Thanksgiving and family.     We will also talk about what it means to be Thankful.  We will talk about the letter T for turkey and Thanksgiving.  We will also continue to practice recognizing  shapes and  colors during circle time.  We will sort different animals during circle time into big/small   During music and movement time we will practice moving like different animals.
