It was a quite a frosty morning today! The children were challenged by the frozen sand in the bowls and buckets. They tried different ways to get the sand out and once they did, they noticed how it was smooth on the bottom and rough on the top.

The ability to slow down instead of spiral into chaos , respond instead of react, and see instead of punish our child is integral to building a connected relationship. Credit: Stuart Shanker

At circle time in the Rascal room, we each got a cup and filled them with some water. We held the cups and observed how different they are in color and shape. Then, we looked at each other and discussed how we are all different and similar in ways but still humans who have a heart. We then drank the water in our cups which tasted the same no matter what the cup looked like. Later, we connected this experiment to our virtue of the month, kindness. We learned that we should be kind to each other even when we look different. That is what Martin Luther King's dream was.

Rascal room was filled with lots of learning this week.

Merry Christmas from our Daycare family to yours! Stay safe and enjoy the holidays.
