February Wrap-Up

It's hard to believe that there are only three more months left of preschool. It seems like the first day of school was just weeks ago - the majority of us were new to this school and the children were so quiet and sweet. Now that the children have gotten to know each other and Teacher Julie, the group is full of excitement and energy!

I had the fun opportunity to co-op a few weeks ago, and I didn't realize how much of my senses I needed to use. At one table, I was working with some of the children making bunny rabbits for the Chinese/Vietnamese New Year while monitoring the children playing in the pinto beans bucket; all the while, Jody was busy making sure each child got a snack while cleaning up the sand that spilled on the floor. When school let out that day, I. Was. Tired. But what a great opportunity it was to work side-by-side with Jody and Teacher Julie, and to be with my son for the day.

I'm amazed at how much the children are absorbing every day. I am sure most of us are impressed by how much knowledge, skill, and information our children bring home. What a gift this is, and it's the dedication of Teacher Julie and us as co-op parents. Keep up the great work!
