Wow, January was here and is now gone! Where does the time go? We had a busy and enjoyable month.
With February comes Valentine’s Day and Mardi Gras…be on the lookout for activities posted outside of your child’s classroom.
WEATHER REMINDER
Please make sure you are dressing your children in labeled, weather appropriate clothing. We will be going outside every day as long as the temperature is above 40 degrees; so please send your child in a warm coat, a hat and gloves every day. Also, please check to make sure your child has an extra set of weather appropriate clothing here at school.
RE-REGISTRATION FOR 2012-2013
Re-registration for 2012-2013 begins Monday, Feb. 6th and extends through Monday, Feb. 13th. At this time we will also register siblings and children/grandchildren of Christ the King Lutheran Church members. Students in these categories are assured of placement for the upcoming year; however, registration forms must be turned into the office during the above dates. A $275 (registration fees vary by age group) registration fee is due for each child registered. For more information, please contact the preschool office at 469-2909. Registration forms are available in the office for siblings and CTK members’ children.
**Parents of present Two Year Olds, please note this important information...Your child can go into the Three Year Old classroom next year ONLY if they are potty trained. Throw away those diapers and pull-ups! NOW is the time to concentrate on this task.
TAXES, TAXES, TAXES
Now that I have your attention...at this time of the year, we get many phone calls requesting our Federal Tax ID number. This information is used for claiming child care expenses on your taxes. The number to use is: EIN#72-6014476.
Humor and Play
Play is at the core of our developmental philosophy at Christ the King Preschool. We believe (with much research that supports this belief) that it is in the context of play that young children learn the most about their world. Children’s play is their work!
Humor is a form of play. It is intellectual play or play with ideas – and it makes significant contributions to young children’s development. It builds vocabulary, helps solidify the child’s knowledge of the world, supports creative thinking, builds social interaction skills, boost self-esteem, and provides a foundation for a skill that will help them cope with life stress throughout the adolescent and adult years. In a nutshell, humor facilitates a child’s intellectual, social and emotional development.
Bible Verse for the month of February:
Serve one another in Love…Isaiah 64:8
Blessings,

Our purpose as a church is to share the joy of growing, giving and living in Christ's Love.
