Happy January!!  

This blog is our new staff newsletter.  I will be posting bits and pieces of information for you monthly ( I think)  Still deciding if this will be monthly or bi-weekly.  Our Job schedule will be posted here too.  This is a work in progress.  If there is something you want posted or talked about, please let me know.

I do want to talk about setting up the room in the mornings and afternoons.  I would love to see whoever sets up the room to get creative with what they put out, Im seeing the same stuff everyday and that gets boring.  We have the big closet and all the cabinets of stuff, plus the big closet downstairs.  If needed, I can post here what I want put out and where but I really want you to come up with your own ideas.  Don't just throw something on the table, actually set it up so it looks inviting to play with.   2nd, I want to talk about being on your phone.  We need to stay off our phones.  No scrolling apps.  We are here to play and supervise our kids.  If you use your phone to take pictures, please email them to me and delete them from your phone.  If you need to take a quick call, please let me know.
