This month has been a whirlwind of excitement and joy for us at the daycare! We embarked on delightful escapades, weaving a tapestry of enduring memories together.
One standout was the mesmerizing puppet spectacle, Punch and Judy, captivating our vivid imaginations. The laughter and moments we had were truly invaluable.
Our visit to the library added an extra dose of enjoyment, we were so eager to select our preferred books and had fun as the only people on the bus journey back to the daycare. It was a minor adventure that left broad smiles etched on our faces.
The Grandparents Coffee event forged a heartwarming connection across generations. Parents and grandparents alike joined us in the Finches classroom, gaining a firsthand glimpse of the delightful activities and experiences that fill our days. Sharing these moments with loved ones was genuinely special.
Friendship Day became a heartwarming celebration as we exchanged handcrafted cards with our peers from a different classroom. Witnessing the joy on their faces as they received our considerate gestures was incredibly gratifying. Kudos to the Hawks class for their fantastic Friendship Day cards – we love them!
Laskitiistai brought a delicious treat to our daycare family, thanks to our talented teacher who crafted homemade laskeas pulla for us to enjoy. The taste of this special treat added a sweet note to our day.
Despite a minor hiccup in our plans for a sledding day – someone had fashioned a mountain of snow on our hill – so we improvised and turned it into a climbing adventure. It’s remarkable how our spirits shine even in the face of unexpected challenges.
In addition to the thrilling adventures, this month has been dedicated to nurturing essential values in our daily daycare lives. Our play area has become a hub of fun and learning where we focus on important values like sharing, being kind, honesty, and helping others.
Through diverse activities and discussions, we’ve been accentuating the significance of sharing with our friends and recognizing the joy it brings to both the giver and the recipient. We have been practicing embodying acts of kindness, whether it involves assisting a friend with tidying up or sharing a toy during playtime.
Honesty has been a cornerstone in our day-to-day interactions. We’ve been promoting transparent communication, learning that honesty establishes trust and fortifies the connections we forge with our peers and caregivers. The lessons about honesty extend beyond the classroom, laying the groundwork for positive relationships in all parts of our lives.
The theme of aiding others has stirred compassion and consideration in our young minds. From simple gestures like assisting with classroom tasks to expressing empathy towards our friends, we are discovering the satisfaction that arises from extending a helping hand.
