Infant Room 1
Winter is coming! This month our lessons will be focused on all
things winter, clothing, animals, snow, etc. We will be painting,
listening to stories, and enjoying some winter music. Our infants are
growing quickly. Emily and Paislee like watching and reaching for the
dangling toys on the floor mat. Rosina loves story time and is
working on sitting without assistance. Dominick is moving quickly
around the room and loves to get to the toys on the shelves. Taylor
is very independent and is starting to hold her own bottle. Landon
is working on rolling over on his own and reaching for toys while on
his tummy. Sebastian is very curious and likes to keep busy with
the toy gumball machine. Katie loves to play the toy piano and the
sound it makes when she bangs on the keys. Giada is sitting at the
table and likes to play with the table toys. Infant room 1 would like
to wish all families and friends a happy and stress free holiday
season!
Infant Room 2
Hello again, so soon! December has arrives and we are getting
ready for the Holidays, so be safe! The Infants are doing great and
they have been making lots of art projects, so if you see paint
between their little toe, it s because they did footprints! Gia is
almost ready to walk, Bryan is walking and running, Christopher,
Alyssa, and Ellie are crawling around and getting into everything!
Lilly and Nason are beginning to catch up with the older babies!
Christian and Nichael are still staying put on the floor, but when we
least expect it they will be rolling around to get to where they want
to be!
