Toddler 1 Blogpost

Our Toddler 1 class is abuzz with fall activity. This month’s thematic unit is All Things Fall. The highlight of our month was our annual field trip to the pumpkin patch. The children loved petting the farm animals, playing in the corn crib and picking their very own pumpkin. We will continue our unit by making paper bag pumpkins and painting with pumpkins in art. In science we will be studying the life cycle of the pumpkin as well as learning the different parts of a pumpkin. We would like to thank everyone for their gifts from our Small Hands wish list. The materials purchased by you will be put to good use by our children. Also, thank you for bringing in items for our Heartwarming Chili. Cooking the chili in class and then eating it at the Fall Festival is a great treat.

Our toddlers continue to learn and grow everyday. It is amazing how much they are truly capable of when they are given high expectations and the chance for independence. Please continue to encourage your child to dress and undress themselves with as much minimal assistance as possible. This is the first step towards readiness for potty training.

As always, thank you for sharing your wonderful children with us. Please do not hesitate to ask if you have any questions or concerns.
