Supply Card Winner

The November winner of a 20 dollar Supply Card for Family Dollar was Crystal Kassler. Remember to get your Developmental Calendar in for December. It's easy to win! Each day of the month jot down what you and your child do that helps foster your child's development.Then give to your Service Coordinator or mail it in. Things like singing a song, counting, stacking blocks, telling your child nursery rhymes, or reading a book and pointing out the pictures are but a few ways to help build your child's development.

The snow is a perfect opportunity to explore something new. Talk about the snow. Explain that is cold and snow melts and becomes water when it gets warm. Bundle up and go outside. Let them touch and feel the snow. Bring some snow inside and watch it melt. Talk about it. Listen to your child, answer their questions. Don't be afraid that you might not know the answer. Let them know that you will find out together. Go to the Library and get books about snow. If you have the Internet at home look it up. This is showing your child different ways to learn and if they see you doing it they will grow up to do the same. After all, parents are the first and most influential teachers of their children and these early years lay the foundation for yor child's success in school and life. Most of all, remember to have fun!
