There
will be more washroom routines throughout the day. I
will go by the children's cues when toilet training and
diapered children will be checked and changed when needed.
Our
daily program is very flexible to allow for unplanned events
or other opportunities that may arise throughout the day.
Some days we may not fit all this in, but we will try!!!
We
have a movie day once a week on Fridays. I pick the
movies! We usually watch it after snack in the
afternoon. Sometimes we will have a picnic on the
floor with a large blanket and lots of pillows, and we eat
our snack while watching the movie. This is only done
as a special reward "cause we had such a great
week!".
We go
outside everyday to play in the backyard (weather
permitting). On those cold and rainy days, we will be
having special activities downstairs--games, dancing etc.
A
birthday is a special event in a child's life and we like to
celebrate by holding a party for each child. I provide
the goodies and decorations, and your child will pick a
book, toy or goodie from out birthday box.
Other
occasions we celebrate are Christmas, Halloween, Valentine's
Day, Thanksgiving and Easter.
Mother's
Day, Father's Day and Grandparent's Day are also celebrated.
We hold a tea/coffee and muffin breakfast.
Everyone
is invited to help us celebrate these occasions! If
you do not want your child to participate, please let me
know in advance.
I offer
a scheduled "Parents-nite-out" each month on a
Friday night of my choice. This is a time for parents
to go out and spend some quality time with each other
without the need to hire a babysitter.
Fun
activities will be planned for that night, which may include
games, movies and/or other activities. I will also
provide dinner and snack at my expense.
This is
my way of thanking you and giving you some much needed time
to yourselves.
