Our PreSchool Blog

It may only be November but the snow was falling in Cincinnati.

We talked about the weather forecast the day before and discussed what we needed to bring to school to prepare for the fluffy white stuff.  HATS!  COATS!  MITTENS!

It hit 30 degrees so we bundled up and headed out for a quick 10 minutes of exploration on the playground.

Did I mention that one of our classmates brought in a “Let’s Make a Snowman!” kit from home?!

If this is what winter is going to inspire, we will be ready!

Here comes the cold! Coat season is in full swing and your preschooler is learning how to put theirs on all by themselves. “The Preschool Flip” is an easy way for your little one to gain some independence, confidence, and responsibility. Start with the hood or collar of coat at your toes open side up. Slip arms into arm holes and slowly flip the coat up over your head. Practice, practice, practice! We also learned how to hang up our belongings so nothing gets lost at the cubbies. Please label everything you send to school! Gross Motor Movement is so important at this age, we will be heading to the playground on days 32 degrees and above. Hats and mittens, please! 220 fingers is just too many to slip into all those little spots in gloves.
