March is here and I am so excited about spring coming! I am really looking forward to the weather warming up and spending more time outside in the back yard! We got our new swing set and climber set up last weekend and it has been really fun watching the kids play on it this week :) Many thanks to one of my daycare families for bringing this to us!! I know that the kids at Judy's Little Gems will enjoy this for years to come!!!
Our Themes this month are Spring and St. Patrick's Day. We will discuss seasonal changes and growth in plants, animals and ourselves. Our Preschool learning themes will be Alphabet letters A thru X in our Alphabet Jive, Numbers 0-9 in number poems, and Counting: 0-20. This month we are starting name recognition. The children will learn to sight read their own names and the names of the others in our group. Later I will add Last names, Addresses and Phone Numbers. Last month we started the birthday song, a fun way to learn the months of the year.
It has been really lovely to watch friendships blossom over the last couple of months. I think the children are really enjoying the routine and each other! With spring approaching quickly, I am so thankful to witness the new growth of beautiful spring flowers and the amazing growth and changes in your beautiful children!!
Many thanks and best wishes for a wonderful spring!
