Good afternoon!
Today was a fantastic day to be engaged in the housekeeping/dramatic play center. Pascale and Daniel were busy cooking up all kinds of yummy foods for their friends and teachers to enjoy. Pascale thought it would also be fun to feed Daniel some of the food she made for him. “The process of pretending builds skills in many essential developmental areas. When your child engages in pretend (or dramatic) play, he/she is actively experimenting with the social and emotional roles in life…. Your child also builds self-esteem when he/she discovers they can be anything just by pretending!”
The gross motor area was also a main focus throughout our play today. Friends gathered the colorful big blocks and soft star climbers to have all kinds of building, climbing and jumping fun! Gross motor activities strengthen a child’s body as well as their confidence level. Gross motor skills are important to enable children to perform everyday functions in life.
Breakfast: Whole grain Kix cereal with Apples.
Lunch: Whole wheat flatbread with refried beans and shredded mozzarella cheese, peas and banana.
Snack: Whole wheat/grain cinnamon raisin bagels with cream cheese and oranges.
Wee Spouts: Corn.
We hope you have a fantastic evening!
Marty
