YOUNG INFANTS:
Dear Parents,
The next holiday, Purim, is this Friday! It starts at sunset on March 13. Our Purim dress-up and party day is Friday, March 14. Costumes are optional, but great fun. Be sure to send “regular clothes” for later. We will have hamantaschen for the children.
The children will be crafting their own groggers out of water bottles for use on Purim. We will also read a picture book about Purim, sing songs and experience the Chai Tots Purim party on Friday morning.
The weather continues to warm up and with it, opportunities to play outside. Please make sure to send changes of clothes for your children.
Be happy it’s Adar.
Warmly,
Morahs Marla, Leslie, and Sarah
OLDER INFANTS:
Dear Parents,
This week we celebrate the triumph of good over evil… the holiday of Purim! It starts at sunset on Thursday, March 13. Our Purim dress-up and party day is Friday, March 14. Costumes are optional, but great fun. Be sure to send “regular clothes” for later. We will have hamantaschen for the children.
The children will be crafting their own groggers out of water bottles for use on Purim. We will also read a picture book about Purim, sing songs and experience the Chai Tots Purim party on Friday morning where the entire school gathers together to model our costumes and admire others’.
Language works on the shelf this week include real root vegetables: ginger, garlic, onion, potato, and sweet potato. The children enjoy holding these real foods in their hands, smelling the unique scents, and hearing and saying the names.
We hope sleeping is going well through the daylight savings adjustments. We are here to support any sleep or other needs your child may have.
We wish you a wonderful week ahead!
Morahs Rachael, Kathy, and Pallavi
