Well, looks like March did come in like a lion and out like a lamb. The children had fun charting the weather and learning about tallies. Now, it's looks like April has started off on the right foot, with April showers which should bring us May flowers! Speaking of flowers, our marigolds are growing nicely. The children are doing a great job taking care of their own flower. They will be coming home with your child this week. We also worked on our own umbrellas, in preparation for April showers. Don't they look so nice?

Soon we will all be on spring break. Please remember that there is no school on Friday. The Easter season has started and little chicks, colored eggs and bunnies are every where you turn. We ended our week with making our own chick hatching out of it's egg. We used snipped color paper to color the egg. Since we are talking eggs, please send in two hard boiled eggs with your child tomorrow. This week, we will be having fun decorating eggs and making a little basket for them. It's going to be a fun week.

Now, onto a more serious note. April is Autism Awareness month. Today, April 2nd, is World Autism Awareness Day. Please help support research for autism and Light It Up Blue! People all over the world will be lighting up their homes offices, etc with blue bulbs, including the Empire States Building! Please send your child in wearing blue and remember to join us for our 2nd annual 5k run/1 mile family walk, on April 21st, at Meadow Breeze park. Registration forms can be found on this website our you can register the morning of. I hope to see many of you there.
