Birthday Policy

Celebrating Birthdays at School 

Share Day

Birthdays are celebrated in a very special way in our Preschool class!  Parents are encouraged to help their child collect a special item or create a project with items that are important to him or her as a “share and tell” activity for their birthday celebration at school!  Allow your child to tell YOU how he or she would like to celebrate! 

IDEAS: 

• Favorite toy/game/activity to be incorporated into Centers 

• Favorite book 

• Craft to make with the class 

• Pictures of family, vacations, interests, etc. glued on construction paper/poster to display in the classroom

• Photo album, scrapbook, etc. 

• Or anything else your child would like to share  

           School policy does not permit parents to host a birthday party celebration.  This is why we do a “Share Day” in our class. If you absolutely prefer to send a snack, please choose from the following safe snacks.  All snacks must be STORE-BOUGHT.  No drink or paper supplies needed!  You may be asked to send a picture of the ingredients list prior to the birthday, to make sure it is safe for a specific child in our class. 

We will never have more than 12 students in our class.  Please send enough for all children to participate.

Options for birthday snacks: 

• Mini muffin packs

• Apple sauce (cup or pouch)

• Individual Pretzel/chip snack bag

• Two-bite mini cupcakes (package of 12) 

•   

SUMMER birthdays can be celebrated at any time during the year.  Just let me know the day your child would like to celebrate!   Perhaps their "Half-birthday" or right before summer break! 

It’s your child’s special day and we would like to make it as memorable as possible!

 Thank you!
