Happy Thanksgiving!!



Dear Parents,  

This week at Little Dreamers we'll be giving thanks for Thanksgiving!!! Preschool will be learning all about the History of Thanksgiving, about Native Americans and about giving Thanks for the people in our lives. Today we made big fat turkeys out of brown bags to display as center pieces on our Thanksgiving Feast Table!! They are very cool :)   We read "In November" and talked about the upcoming season change to Winter (next month's Unit).  We talked about how quiet Winter becomes and why our animal friends rest for the Winter.  Throughout the week, your little one will be making special crafts such as Center Pieces and Napkin Holders to bring home on Wednesday that will help decorate your own homes for the big day! 

Our Toddlers are celebrating in their own ways- learning how to gobble like turkeys, practicing singing thanksgiving turkey songs and finger plays, and making beautiful crafts for moms and dads to enjoy!  Feel free to stop into all of our classrooms to see our decorations!

We'll be celebrating the Thanksgiving Holiday together on Wednesday (24th) with a  fantastic Thanksgiving Feast complete with Turkey, Mashed Potatoes and Pumpkin Pie!! Please remember there is no need to pack a lunch for your little one that day, as their tummies will be sufficiently filled with food at the feast.  Parents are encouraged to bring a dish (please see our sign up sheet by the front door) and to attend the feast and celebrate with us! 

Have a Safe and Happy Holiday!
