Reminders
- We will be closed for Winter Break from Monday, December 16th through Wednesday, January 1st. Classes resume on Thursday, January 2nd.
- If you provided a warm weather outfit for your child’s cubby at the beginning of the school year, please send in long pants and a long-sleeved shirt in a Ziploc bag to update their cubby clothes.
- We go outside every day, weather permitting. Please make sure you send your child with hats, mittens, snow gear if necessary and boots. Mittens are much easier for the children than gloves. We encourage the children to try and put on their own gear and they are very proud when they are successful. Gloves are difficult and frustrating for little ones to maneuver. Please label their clothing to ensure that they don’t get misplaced. Thank you!
An Owl’s Crossing Favorite song:
A chubby little snowman had a carrot nose.
Along came a rabbit, and what do you suppose?
That hungry little bunny, looking for his lunch.
Ate the snowman’s carrot nose…nibble, nibble, crunch!
Hoot of the Month
What did the snowman say to his friend?
Do you smell carrots?
