Sometimes while some

receiving special attention. Sometimes this is a group time. Activities
will be sensory, hands-on activities relating to language skills, numbers,
shapes, science concepts, etc. and will include cutting, gluing, creative
drawing, painting, etc. The activity will often relate to our special
theme or story. There will not always be a take-home project. |

so the day’s experience is enjoyable.
MORNING PRAYER
Thank you, God, for this new day,
And for the time to work and play.
Please be with me all day long,
In every story, game, and song.
May all the happy things we do,
Make you, dear God, happy too.

SNACK PRAYER
Bless us, O Lord, and these Thy
gifts, which we are about to receive from Thy bounty, through Christ our
Lord. Amen. |
- Please bring the bag we
provide each day.
Thank you.
