Winter

Brrrr, it's that time of year again!! Please make sure that all mittens, gloves, scarves, coats, boots etc are labelled with your child's name. I know we all hand down things, so at least have your child's last name. Often they don't recognize things especially if they are new or worn infrequently.
Also, you may have heard from your child that I don't put coats on them :) I ask that all We 3s at least try to put on their own coat, they need to pull on one sleeve, but I think by practicing at home they could easily be putting on their own coat by Christmas break. The PreK kids need to be able to put on their own coats, I will help with zippers, boots, mittens etc. Again, if you see that your child is having trouble, please start taking a few minutes a day to have them practice. It is not about my time, it's just a skill they need to have. It's time to let them 'be big' and do it themselves!
