Staci's Notes:
The Halloween parade, carnival, and parties were a great hit. Thank you to all the parents for their help with everything today. We greatly appreciate everything you have done.
For the next two weeks, we will be learning about Fall. We will be painting fall leaves, making collages, leaf prints, and all sorts of other fun art activities. The Care Bears, Pooh Bears, and Teddy Bears will be making cornucopias for their cook day snacks.
*Picture Day*
November 7th is our picture day! We will be starting no later than 9:00.
The Care Bears are also beginning to prepare for the Thanksgiving Feast. Our Feast will be on Thursday, November 20th. Please be sure to reserve that date; you will truly enjoy the food and the songs that your child has practiced! Each Care Bear will be allowed to bring two guests.
