We are just getting around to celebrating all of our staff anniversaries (thanks covid!)
June marked 10 years with Ms. Gina! Ms. Gina has been a teacher in almost every single age group throughout our center! She found her permanent home in our Pre-k class. Ms. Gina is our go-to teacher for sensory activities! She makes learning so much fun!

October marks 6 years with Ms. Carol! Ms. Carol has been our 1 year old teacher in the Kangaroos class for 6 years! Putting your one year old in daycare for the first time is not so scary when they get to be in the Kangaroos class!
Thank you, Ms. Carol for being so wonderful to all of our kiddos.

Due to the COVID-19 Pandemic, many toy fundraisers are changing the way they accept toys and gifts for the holiday season.
This year, we have decided to take part in a virtual toy drive through Children's Hospital of Philadelphia. Please help us reach our goal of $500 (or more!) and make the holidays special for these children and families spending the holidays in the hospital.

In the science center this week, the children in the Zebras used test tubes, pipettes, small bowls, cups, and spoons to explore how some liquids and powders interact with conversation hearts.
