We love our books around here...and this was a selection of the books we read last week for our "P" is for "People" week.  We had lots of discussions about the people that we love, people we know, people we see in our neighborhood, people that help us...

With our little song, "Who Are The People In Your Neighborhood,"  (yes the Sesame Street version :)) We kind of made up our own little diddy...sang to the same tune as below, but we added the Trashman is a person in your neighborhood, in your neighborhood, in your neighborhood, yes the Trashman is a person in your neighborhood, he's a person that you meet each day!  Doctor, gardener, nurse, firefighter, neighbor, grandma, grandpa, pilot, captain, secretary, salesman, etc.  We would sing this song each day and think of just as many people as we could.  We would also don our hats as we sang this song and this gave us lots of ideas.  The books listed above also talk about special people in our lives that we love, things they do for us and how we can love them back...

We praciticed our letter "P" many times each day in our playdough, sand, dirt, with paint and brushes, sticks and in the water. We also practiced writing the letter "P" with our Hooked on Phonics video and letter papers with markers, crayons, and glitter glue!

Just a few more stories we worked into this week also had to do with the different types of vehicles that we see people driving in our neighborhood and one of our class favorites, On Monday When It Rains, which is about all the emotions a preschool aged boy goes through during his week.

And one of my favorite pictures from last week.  It looks staged, I know, but they were all playing together...yes, my independent little Ally still in her pajamas and decided they wanted to "snuggle" together on the chairs.  This was a precious moment of teamwork, sharing and friendship as they helped one another up onto the chairs, calling out to each other to join them.  Once they were all comfy I snapped this....

So glad I could capture the sweet little moment in time.  All too soon they will be big teenage girls heading off into life in different directions...but for this moment, they are all MY SWEET BABES!!!

What Our Clients Are Saying

My husband and I both work full time and during the year 2011 we needed a child care provider for our five year old daughter and our 20 month old son. I am a Special Education Teacher for the Willard RII district in Missouri. I found LaDonna Woolsey on the internet while searching for a child care provider.  I had called numerous places and never felt comfortable with any of them to even make an appointment to meet them in person. I called LaDonna, and almost immediately after the conversation started, I felt a sense of relief and made an appointment to check out her daycare in person, the following day.  When I saw her facility I was absolutely amazed. LaDonna answered all of my nervous mom questions and watching her interact with the children made me realize I had found the perfect person to watch my children during the day. She started providing Child Care services for my children immediately... - Lisa Lassley - Special Education Teacher for the Willard RII
