Please check your child's container of clothing
and exchange for lighter and most likely larger clothes.
We will be outside on a daily basis and ask you to dress your child appropriately.
Proper shoes are very important for the safety of children.
Gym shoes are the best.  Please no sandals, jelly shoes or flip flops.
Thank you for your cooperation.

THE WEEK OF THE YOUNG CHILD
April 19-25, 2009

The Week of the Young Child is a time to recognize
that children's opportunities are our responsibilities,
and to recommit ourselves to ensuring
that each and every child experiences the type of early environment
---at home, at child care, at school, and in the community---
that will promote their early learning.

Today  we know more than ever before about the importance of children's
earliest years in shaping their learning and development. Yet, never before
have the needs of young children and their families been more pressing.
The Week of the Young Child is a time to recognize that children's opportunities
are our responsibilities, and to recommit ourselves to ensuring that each and
every child experiences the type of early environment--at home, at child care,
at school, and in the community--that will promote their early learning.
