Pajama Party!

Here is today's note from Clara and Emma's teacher. When Mommy asked Clara about school today, she said "guitar and hammer." Guitar must have been for the cantor coming to sing with her guitar and hammer because she likes to go in the loft area of the classroom and bang the hammer.


"Dear Parents,

Your children had a wonderful day. Lauren subbed with me and the class enjoyed getting to know her.

The twos loved painting with blue and red at the easel, and making dot pictures at the table. We played with big cardboard blocks and made tall towers. We also played with our toy airplanes and helicopters today. We enjoyed bananas, pretzels, and dry cereal at snack, and then Cantor Amy came in with her guitar to sing with us. She even sang a song about Brown Bear since we had just read the book! Then she taught us a few songs in Hebrew.

The twos continue to do a great job lining up on our blue tape line to go outside, and then on our red line in the hall to wait for everyone to get jackets on. We're still enjoying the good weather outside. The children played in the sand, on the slides, and in the cars.

See you Thursday.

Laurie"



This afternoon, Clara and Emma got dressed in their pajamas and went to a TRPG event with Citibabes to benefit The Pajama Program. It was a great afternoon filled with play, storytime, and of course, cookies and milk. Clara and Emma drank their milk- and even requested more- from a cup and loved their chocolate chip cookies, which Emma noted had "chips" in them.
