Hello!
We are still fixing our picture posting issue.
Wee Sprouts: Carrots. Breakfast: Whole wheat bagels with cream cheese and bananas. Lunch: Whole grain flat bread with peanut butter, mixed veggies and grapes. Snack: Graham crackers and bananas.
We’ll see you at 4pm!
We were having blog problems uploading the pictures, so here’s just the text of today’s blog. We’ll get all the pics to you as soon as we figure out why our program is being difficult.
Tomorrow, our dear Melinda is having knee surgery. She will be gone through the beginning of January. Should you want to touch base with her, she asked that you feel free to write her via email or snail mail @ [email protected] or 134 River Avenue, Mishawaka 46554.
We are looking forward to seeing you all tomorrow (Thursday 12/12) at 4pm!
Our day began with a sticker project. We set out stickers and black card stock and encouraged friends to create ornaments.
Ellie is deep into a study of her favorite book, Beauty and the Beast. We set out to lift ideas off the page by offering Ellie and later, several of her friends, red and green paper and tape to create roses. After Ellie finished her rose, she set it under a glass bowl. She will watch it in days to come to see how, with her imagination, it might change.
As friends settled into independent play, here are some of the thoughts we gathered, about their work at hand.
Max, Elliott and Finn: “Let’s BBQ the Grinch so we can eat him. It will be like hot dogs without the bun.”
Zoi: “I’m drinking milk.”
Eve: “I’m feeding the baby this.”
Clara: “I’m feeding my baby milk. He’s sitting in the high chair.”
Aislinn: “Ga-ga baby! We’re playing house with daddy and mommy. They are saying go to bed.”
Owen: “Go to bed baby. Ring-ring-ring! You can get up baby!”
Marta: “I waited for Lisa. I picket out this book.”
Ellie: “I’m building a big tower so the bad wolf doesn’t get up there and eat the pig!”
Elizabeth: “I’m making a wall for the Big Bad Wolf to not get up to the surface.”
Marina: “ This is the Big Bad Wolf.”
Enjoy your day. It’s a good day for a BBQ.
Wee Sprouts: Cucumbers. Breakfast: Malt-O-Meal and bananas. Lunch: Homemade ham and bean soup, homemade wheat bread and butter and bananas. Snack: Apple slices and string cheese.
Happy Wednesday!
Three was our number again today!
Eve spent most of her morning at Wee Friends today. Lu-Lu spent her time in the kitchen and building with blocks. Maya enjoyed getting different books out to look at.
Before lunch, Eve requested the magnatiles. She divided up the cars and magnatiles for her and Lu-Lu to share.
For breakfast, children had toast with cinnamon and banana. Lunch consisted of homemade grilled cheese, homemade ham and bean soup, and banana. PM snack was string cheese and animal crackers.
We hope you’ve had a wonderful day!
Stay warm! 
It has come to my attention that our parking policy needs to be reviewed. Our neighbors have been very supportive of our business zoning in their residential neighborhood and the inconveniences associated with a small business on their quiet street. Therefore, it is my work to communicate our parking policy and to ask everyone to police themselves in following it EVERY time they are parking.
I fully understand that parking can be frustrating, especially when families are busy and need to move on to their next event in the evening. However, this is our parking situation and when everyone is on board, it runs pretty smoothly, despite the occasional inconveniences.
The most difficult time is between 5:00-5:30 when the majority of our families arrive simultaneously. Please consider, if your schedule allows, a slightly earlier pick up if parking in the church lot is frustrating to you when the on street parking is full.
ON THURSDAY, FOR OUR WF PROGRAM AT 4:00, ALL FAMILIES WILL NEED TO PARK AT THE CHURCH LOT.
I am sending home this diagram and the policy to each family. PLEASE SIGN THE PARKING POLICY AND RETURN IT TO WF. Thanks!
PARKING POLICY FOR WF/WWF FAMILIES
Families dropping off or picking up children may use on street parking ONLY for a maximum of 10 minutes at each time.
If you would like to enjoy time in the WF/WWF past 10 minutes you must park:
Our families MUST park courteously to our neighbors. This means:
We are getting ready for Thursday! Yesterday afternoon, we began, in earnest, rehearsing our song for our holiday concert.
We’ll keep our eye out for you. Thursday, 12/12, 4pm.
Have a great day.
Wee Sprouts: Celery sticks. Breakfast: Peanut butter toast and apple slices. Lunch: farm fresh egg casserole with potatoes, orange/banana fruit salad and tortilla. Snack: Gold fish and Craisins.
Hello!
With only three friends here today, it was a quiet morning at WWF! Eve played in the kitchen for a while before heading over to Wee Friends to play. Come January, Eve will venture over across the bridge to Wee Friends. She’s been visiting most mornings and having a fabulous time!
That left us with Maya and Lucy! They had the whole run on the house. Between playing with baby toys, train blocks, and doll house equipment (babies, furniture), they were both ready for their morning naps 
.
For breakfast, Eve chose toast with cinnamon and banana. Lunch consisted of Eve eating at Wee Friends. She made a morning of it! Snack was rice cakes with cream cheese and raisins.
Have a lovely rest of your day!
Happy Monday! Hope everyone had a great weekend!
Today, because of low number, friends got one on one time with friends and teachers! The babies enjoyed floor time. Tate made his way up the habitrail this morning 
.
Eve and Saskia read books sporadically this morning. This afternoon, Eve worked with her colors and sorting. She used the peg boards and associated the boards with the colored pegs.
For breakfast, children had cheerios and pears. Lunch consisted of whole grain noodles with cheese and kidney beans, oranges, and corn. PM snack was cheddar cheese and apples.
Have a great night!

Happy Friday!
We enjoyed going on the habitrail today along with stacking/sorting/playing on the blocks! It was a sensorial morning with friends touching pokey bouncy balls and our sensorial circles.
Eve, Eren, and Emma played barbershop this afternoon. They stacked the blocks and had a friend sit in the chair. They even ‘pumped up’ the chair and started cutting hair!
To end our day, we had real barbershop! Eren loved his spikey hair! 
For breakfast, friends had toast with cinnamon and pears. Lunch consisted of whole grain rice with kidney beans, pears, and mixed veggies. For PM snack, children had pretzels and string cheese.
Have a terrific weekend!
Good Afternoon! It was a busy WF morning filled with lots of board games, puzzles, play dough, holiday stories, art, and music.
