Welcome, little one!

A welcome just for you, what play is, why it matters, and what your week looks like.

§1

Hello!

You are going to play a LOT this year.

Some of the games will be funny. Some will be quiet. Some might even make you feel big feelings, that is all part of it.

Your educators made this with us. We hope you LOVE it.

§2

The five things you will do every week

Each week looks the same:

  • 👀 Watch a little video together.
  • 🏃 Play a game with everyone.
  • ✏️ Draw or tell a story.
  • 💃 Move your body.
  • 🙏 Say "thank you" for one thing.
§3

Our class rules

Just three.

  • Try.
  • Be kind.
  • Have fun.
§4

When you feel grumpy

Sometimes a game feels too tricky. Sometimes you do not want to play. That is okay. You can say to your educator, "I need a quiet spot." They will help.

The game will still be there tomorrow.

Now you're ready

Your first week is waiting.
