Valentine's Day parties are going on tomorrow in all the classrooms form older infants on up to kindergarten.  If your child is handing out valentines they don't have to have each friend's name on them, it can just have your child's name in the "From:" part.  This makes it easier to deliver.  Hugs and Kisses on Valentine's Day from all of the Little Sweethearts at Great Beginnings!

Just wanted to let everyone know that we will be open as usual on Monday morning 2/10/14.  We had a problem with one of our furnaces, the motor seized and sent some smoke into the infant room.  There was no fire, but the fire department did come and check everything out from top to bottom just to make sure.  We are fine and the furnace is being fixed right now.  We did close for the day just to be on the safe side and to air out the rooms.  We are so very sorry for the inconvenience to all of our families.  I'm sure you all understand the need for extra caution when it comes to caring for your little ones.  Enjoy your weekend and we'll see you on Monday.

Our Kindergarten class celebrates their 100th day of school today!  There are 100 streamers hanging in the room, they are counting out and eating 100 fruit loops, they are running 100 laps around the classroom in sets of 5.  The children have even brought in collections of 100 items from home: legos, marshmallows, chocolate candies.  What fun ways to gain the concept of this frequently used number!
