Christmas Party

We will be having our Daycare Christmas Party on December 21, 2012. Your child will be drawing names for their "Secret Santa" on November 21. So if for any reason you do not want your child to participate in this, please let me know by November 19. I will send home a note saying who's name your child drew and the age of the child. The limit is $20. Your welcome to bring things to share with all, but please just let me know so we don't have all the same items.

Flu Season 
Flu Season has approached us. Please if you have any questions as to if your child should attend daycare please feel free to ask. I've got a list from the The Children's Hospital of different things as to when to keep your child home with you. Just remember that a lot illnesses are contagious before symptoms appear.
