***Ratings***
We are on list for the Colorado Quality Standard's to come out and rate our program. I will keep everyone informed as to what month they will be out. I am very excited to see what we rate.
Flu Season
Flu Season has approached us. I encourage ALL children to get their Flu Shots if they can. 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 & CDC of different things as to when to keep your child home with you. Just remember that a lot illnesses are contagious before symptoms appear. Temperature over 100 degrees F is considered a fever according to the CDC.

Show & Share
Please see the SHOW & SHARE BOARD (Changes Weekly)
The kids will be asked to bring ONE toy from home on FRIDAY'S ONLY, but now they have to help pick something that we have learned from the week. I will put on the board what they need to help pick out from home. Example: 1st Week we will be working on the letter A & the color Blue. If you could help them find something at home that starts with the letter A, like the sound in APPLE or something with the color Blue.
Please bring this item in a bag, labeled with their name. Since we are going to have a specific day to bring a toy, I am asking for ALL other toys to stay at home all other days.
