October Theme Weeks

Sept 29 Fall Nocturnal Animals Week 1 

Oct 6 Sports Week 2 

Oct 13 Music Week 3 

Oct 20 Pumpkin Patch Week 4 

Oct 27 Halloween Week 5

We have a fun month planned for October.  Sports week have your child wear your favorite sports team shirt while playing with us in KIM.  Music week: we may have a surprise visitor come join us one morning to play some instruments for us.  Day and time to be announced. And the best part… Halloween week wear your costumes, or fun t-shirts any day that week.  Please no masks, or weapons (ex: swords, light sabres etc).  Staff will be wearing costumes, nothing too scary though, just fun and lively. 

New Kitchen Set 

Child Development in the play kitchen expands a child’s vocabulary.  Children use words such as: “hot, cold, plate, cup, fork, bread, cupcake.”  Dramatic play in the kitchen also promotes social skills. Children determine who will play what role in the scenario.  Ideas such as who will be the cook, or the waiter or waitress. Fine Motor Skill Development is practiced as well. Children can practice their fine motor skills by picking up small pieces of food (most kitchens come with accessories including food, utensils and dishes) and then placing them onto plates and cups.  Kitchens have knobs that can be turned. Children use their whole hand or fingers to turn knobs and pull open drawers. 

Halloween 

Childcare is open Thursday, October 31, from 8am-1pm only.
