What's better than candy? Candy AND books! Point your broomsticks toward our Cold Spring, Fort Thomas and Newport branches today between 6 - 8 pm for Curbside Trick or Treat. We will deliver candy, books and crafts straight to your car window while supplies last. 🍫📚
When it’s October, even our babies like to go see the changing colors and the falling leaves. Outdoor experiences can provide an opportunity to explore, discover and appreciate the natural world. Time spent in the outdoors should be an important part of the daily program for all children, including babies!
Don’t miss this event at Campbell County Library!

Did you know this is the way we teach preschool at Kids & Cribs? We focus on the seven Kentucky Early Learning standards and develop activities that teach the standards through play. Why do we do this? Evidence-based research has proven children learn best through play! What may look like just play to you is actually learning taking place!

It's Thankful Tuesday! How about making a Gratitude Turkey with your child? You may find it interesting to discover what your child is thankful for! You can cut a paper towel holder in half for the body, cut out some feathers and ask everyone in the family what they are thankful for this year.
This is a fun, nature, inspired activity to do with your child!
Don’t forget to Fall Back!
Be sure to dress warm if you plan to be out in the snow! Kids & Cribs uses Kid Reports to announce any delays or closing due to inclement weather, however we make every effort to remain open to support our working families. Allow extra time if necessary for your Monday commute.

Dancing Candy Hearts 💕ages 3*+ 💕 Here’s a fun twist on our dancing grapes experiment that’s perfect for Valentine’s Day! All you need for this experiment is seltzer water and candy hearts. Simply add the hearts to a glass of seltzer water and watch them rise, fall & dance in the water! The hearts are slightly heavier than the water so they naturally sink to the bottom, but the carbon dioxide bubbles attach to the hearts causing them to rise to the top. Once the hearts reach the top, the bubbles pop and the hearts sink back to the bottom where more bubbles attach to them and the process repeats. So cool!

Truth. Be kind.

When you have a neurotypical child, you feel reasonably assured that class participation and decent study habits will result in good grades. These kids have close friends. They get invited to participate in social things like dances and weekend gatherings. They make the teams, auditioned organizations and clubs.
But when you have a child with certain differences, this is often not the case. Learning may take longer, both academically and socially. Despite their tremendous efforts, results are often a fraction of their peers and social acceptance is fleeting, setting them up for painful comparisons and bitter frustration. Instead of a fun and fulfilling experience, school can become a breeding ground for depression and anxiety, and assignments a battle ground at home. It is exhausting for parent and child alike.
This is the week of SPED (Special Education), Autism, Dyslexia, Dysgraphia, and ADHD (Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder) awareness.
For all the children who struggle every day to succeed in a world that does not recognize their gifts and talents, and for those who are walking beside them, please let this be a gentle reminder to be kind and accepting of ALL people.
Recognize that the "playing field" is not always a level surface.
Children who learn differently are not weird. They are merely gifted in ways that our society does not value enough. Yet they want what everyone else wants: To be accepted!!
If you choose, please copy and paste this in honor of all children who are deemed "different". Our world would be far less beautiful without them.
