We are excited to announce our Summer Playdate Series! Everyone loves a playdate, but the kids want to have them more than parents like to host them. Let us play host this summer . . . that means no mess, no noise, no cleanup and no negotiations about who gets to come over. We have decided that summertime at Creative Tots should be more about what the kids want. The kids want to play. The kids want to see their friends. The kids have spoken and we have listened. They think that anything to do with “camp” might just be a little too much like school. Let your kids explore they way they are built to explore . . . through playing in the summertime with their friends. So, grab a friend and join us!
Ms. Penny joined the K Prep Class to teach us about about two ways Native Americans told stories long ago…pictographs and petroglyphs. We tried our hand at creating our own pictograph!

Petroglyph
We’ve been learning about Native Americans this month and how they helped the pilgrims survive when they started their lives in their new world! Today we discovered how some Native Americans told stories without letters or words and tried our hand at our own symbols.
Some Native American Tribes used to use a decorated feather during meetings and discussions to allow everyone a chance to speak their mind without being interrupted. The children had a chance to try it out during small groups and take their own feather home.
We worked on the sight word, some, this week in reading groups. We also learned about the different types of homes that Native Americans lived in long ago.
Creative Tots has specialized in the private education of both toddlers and preschool age children for over 15 years. We began in the heart of Madeira and now also have a new Mason location. We are specifically designed to focus on early childhood development for children ages 18 months to 5 years.
