Special Activity
Free Play Centers

Sometimes while some children are having free play, the other children are doing a project or 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.

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.
