Good Afternoon!

**Please bring in a white t-shirt for your child by Monday, June 28th. Thanks!

Children asked for the kinetic sand shortly after breakfast. The sensory bin stayed full as children filtered in and out. The kinetic sand has been one of our favorite sensory experiences!

Right now, we have sand experiences outside and inside. Our outdoor sandbox is always full of children, exploring the sandbox and creating tons of new and interesting structures. Below is a short article that gives reasons as to why sand and water experiences are important for development.

Some of our herbs are coming in! A few friends got to try the cilantro and kale while others smelled the basil and dill.

We looked at how the tomatoes are coming in—we are so excited to be able to pick vegetables when they’re ready.
