So excited to celebrate Groundhog Day in the dayhome this next week! I spent yesterday cleaning up all "Winter" theme posters and replaced them with Valentine's Day hearts all pink, red and purple! We are going to have a wonderful month. I set up our "Groundhog burrow" aka Igloo Tent! Complete with a tunnel to burrow into! We will end the week finding out if Balzac Billy will see his shadow or not! Lots of crafts are prepared and ready to go. Also please ask your children to sing their Groundhog song! Too cute:) Have a super week everyone and enjoy this amazing weather:)

Last week I said that I would post some pictures of the dayhome and what I consider a "print-rich" environment. Here are some of the walls of the dayhome and some of the centers. Please leave a comment and tell me what you think! Thanks everyone:)

What a busy weekend! I apologize for not uploading Thursday's Hibernation Day pictures sooner! We had lots of fun! Hibernating in our "bear cave," playing games with our special bears we brought from home and eating Teddy Grahams for snack! This week's theme is... Penguins! This is always a favourite with the kids and myself! We will play penguin games, make lots of penguin crafts and of course, learn all about penguins! Should be a great week! A lot colder than last week that's for sure. Stay warm and check back often to find out what we've done and what we will be doing. Have an awesome week!

I was just downstairs getting ready for Hibernation Day tomorrow and I was thinking about a "print rich" environment. I have to say when I am down there it truly makes me happy. With all the cute posters on the wall ANNOUNCING our different themes of the month, it puts a smile on my face. I hope the children feel the same!! I will post some pictures this weekend so you can all have a look and maybe even leave a comment or two. I would love to know what you think! Today was a lovely day! We even made it outside to hang up our bird feeders from yesterday. The kids really love being out there. We are going to make a bigger effort to enjoy the Winter. Especially with the weather being so nice! Today we finished up a What does Teddy Wear during the Winter? booklet made with painted paper plates, lots of colouring and cutting. Pretty cute. I won't post any pictures of this because quite honestly I don't remember where I got the idea from! We are looking forward to tomorrow and spending some time in our "Bear Cave!" Which is really just our castle covered with a big quilt! The kids will like it! Have a great evening everyone!
