Announcements:  We will not be going on a field trip this week.  We will be going on the 26th and 27th so plan on bringing your child their t-shirts on and leaving car seats.  I do need a parent to help with both age groups so please e-mail me or talk to me next week if you could help drive and be with us for the field trip.    Your child brought home a plant last week.  These are zinnia’s which are beautiful flowers you can plant in your yard after Mother’s Day.  We talked about them putting it in a sunny window and watering it a little everyday.  I like to let them water with a spray bottle of water because it helps with their fine motor skills and it’s easier for them not to make a mess.  =)

Home Challenge: Look for opportunities for you preschooler to be a little helper at home. With help and encouragement they can accomplish a lot. They can help you in the kitchen, they can help feed pets, dust, set the table, and help with younger siblings. Be sure to give lots of praise for their small efforts. The more they feel valued the more they will want to continue helping you. This will be very rewarding for you as well!
