Director's Comments
Question to director: Do you have any additional thoughts on what parents should consider when looking at your school? Is there any advice that you would like to provide to prospective parents?
We are a small school with two rooms, one for toddlers aged 1 year to 2 1/2 years and one for preschoolers aged 2 1/2 years to 4 1/2 years. We provide an intimate setting in which the teachers really get to know the children, as well as their parents, who attend our school.
Our teachers complete 15 hours of continuing education each year, some of which is provided through the Methodist Kindergarten Nursery Association.

A Season of Rituals
Darkest December is upon us, and we are all preparing, in our different ways, to light it up with rituals. Christmas, Hanukkah, and New Year's. Parties, tree lightings, and holiday cards. Visits with family. Feasts, gifts, and candles.

Today's “Preschool’s Out” Activity
Get large plastic buckets (or sand buckets if you have lots of really little toys )in a variety of solid colors (red, blue, yellow, green, pink). Ask your child to clean up his/her toys by putting the toys in the bucket corresponding to the color bucket. Great for teaching personal responsibility, color identification, and sorting.
