Week of the Young Child

It’s true.  NAEYC’s week of the young Child begin’s today!  How are you celebrating it?  We’d love to hear your ideas!  Below is a link from their website offering ideas for classrooms (and families) to participate in this week.  Or… Create your own activities for you and your child(ren) this week!

We are celebrating with an Art Show featuring each child work from each room in our center at St. Ambrose University.  We will also have our project work displayed and some of our university student’s work.  On Friday, we will be parading around the university campus celebrating childhood.  For those of you in the area, we will be leaving our school around 930am and heading to St. Ambrose.  From there, we will parade across campus (feel free to join us or wave at us from your office Ambrosians!) and then spend some time enjoying the campus.  We will have guest readers, music, and children’s activities during this time. Help us celebrating childhood as they are the foundation for our future!
