Summer!

We have had some snow recently and some pretty chilly temperatures. I am originally from Michigan where snow was just a part of your daily life. We had help in Michigan with lots of salt trucks, multiple city snow plows and our trusty family snow blower (still going strong after 45 years).  

Even though it's cold outside, let's think about those long, warm summer days. What could be better than looking ahead to June? There are so many wonderful opportunities for your child to have an active, fun, and enriching summer. Making new friends, meeting counselors/teachers, and learning new skills will help them immensely as they transition into Kindergarten.
