Dear Parents:
The End of Year Celebration/Graduation was just amazing! The children have grown so much this year and we are so proud of them! Your children have been working hard this year and have learned a tremendous amount.
We are sad to see the children who are taking the next step go, but we are excited for their new adventures in Kindergarten! We would like to thank everyone for attending and being a part of a very special day.
Everyday at circle time we will be reviewing numbers, letters, colors, shapes and our daily songs, we will also be learning about the Fourth of July, Fish, Summer Fruits, Insects and the Beach. We will be doing sand art and tasting all kinds of summer fruit. The children also enjoy doing music, movement and exercise everyday and they are really doing well and they love to do their projects too! Our number & alphabet writing is progressing along wonderfully. The children love to come up during circle time to write their name and letters.
It is with great pleasure that Miss Dawn’s Child Care camp begins July 6th. The children truly enjoy it! Hopefully everyone will participate in this wonderful event for it to be successful. Please look for the Camp Calender next week for all of our exciting events.
We would like to offer a wonderful camp setting without the outrageous cost of camp. We will be creating an atmosphere of exploration, discovery, and excitement. Our aim is to provide an atmosphere for your children filled with wonderful memories that you both can share forever.
Some of the fun filled Camp Activities that the children will be doing are:
- Party Kingdom, LLC.– Sports, bowling, bouncer water slide, tumbling, parachute, bubbles & more.
- Hiccups the Clown – A clown will come to visit with us. She will be doing magic tricks, face painting and animal balloons.
- Happy Feet – Story time with a soccer ball.
- Arts & Crafts – The teachers will be making all kinds of wonderful ceramics, paper mache’, tie dying and more!
- Exercise/Dance – The teachers will show the children some basic exercise and movements.
- Music & Movement – We will be singing and dancing with the children using all kinds of fun instruments.
- Marine Science & Environmental Education – Seashore Safari – they will bring the beach to our classroom! This hands-on presentation introduces your children to local marine life – sea stars, shellfish, hermit crabs, snails, and… the infamous horseshoe crab!
- As well as, Treasure Hunts, Carnival Day, Pizza Party, Obstacle Courses, Crazy Hat Day, Ice-Cream Parties, Picnics, Magic Shows, Water Fun and more!
The cost of camp will be an additional $50.00 per month, per child for July and August.
Please don’t forget, July tuition is the full tuition price and due on the 1st, no later than the 10th. The additional camp cost will only be for the months of July & August. Please submit your Camp fee as soon as possible in cash in a separate envelope. The fee will help to cover the cost of all the great activities and special lunches we will be having.
The camp will start July 6th – Aug. 28th. We hope that everyone will participate. Our desire is to give the children an action packed safe and happy summer.
