Happy Wednesday!

Transitions. They are inevitable in child care. Whether we’re talking about a new child, new teacher, or new routine, transitions occur. The atmosphere (aka kids, nap times, etc.) might be a little off balance until the dust settles.

This week, we welcomed Miss Jessica who helps us during break times. We are enjoying getting to know her and are so thankful she’s here with us. Also, we have our newest friend Rosemary who is acclimating well. Transitions are going to be tough. New faces. It’s a big thing for these little people. This being said, children are resilient.

Anna is continuing to get stronger. She can hold that little head up forever! Her favorite thing to do is flip from her back to her tummy.

As we headed outside, Maya went straight for the bikes.

Naia helped shuck corn as a few friends stood and watched.  Maya made sure they went to the right bin.

We were very helpful!

Sometimes outside, we’re go go go. It’s nice to sit on the swing or bench and take a breather. A few friends sat with Miss Mindy as we sang songs.

Our friends have been reaching for the sky; doing things out of the norm. (trying to climb the ladder for example); and continuing to grow and learn from their surroundings, including their friends.

For breakfast, children had kix and banana. Lunch consisted of farm fresh egg casserole, carrots/peas, and strawberries. PM snack was animal crackers and cheddar cheese slices.

Have a great night!
