We had another great week here at the center! The students enjoyed fall themed activities, practiced writing their names, and share toys with one another. Our preschool class also took a walk by the New Chicago Fire Department and were welcomed with open arms! They got to see the trucks and check out the gear, they were so excited. Thank you firemen! We hope you had a great week too!

We had another great week at the Center! Full week of school with very full classes. This week we continued to work on our daily routines, practiced our fine motor skills, and definitely practiced our large motor skills both in and out of the classrooms. We also welcomed some new friends and we cannot wait for more friends to join us in the weeks to come! We hope you had a great week and that it follows into the weekend!

The Center will likely be closed all of next week. The power pole next to the Center snapped and fell, ripping the electrical junction box off the building. Many trees are down and we had some water damage in the adult department.

The board and management are working as quickly as possible to get the Center back up and running, but with so much damage in our area, Cruz have a waitlist. We are doing the absolute best we can!

We had a great week back after mid-summer break! These kiddo's were so excited to come back and see their friends and teachers and had so much to tell us. The told us all about their 4th of July celebrations and the fireworks and parades they got to see. They were a little wild, so we made sure to give them extra outside time to run off that energy! They also enjoyed the chalk and bubbles donated by a dear friend Melissa! They said thank you from the bottom of their hearts. We hope you had a great week as well that continues into the weekend!

Another busy week here at the center! We had to spend our time exploring things inside due to all of the rain, but the kiddos made the most of it! They were finally able to spend some time outside today and they enjoyed it thoroughly! Regardless of the rain they used every part of their brains this week and then even surprised us with their knowledge!

We had another great week here at summer camp. Lots of water play both indoors and out. Students got to see how much their plants have grown. Their teachers make sure they water them every day. A few other students created sea turtles in their classroom and also created a sea themed snack. We had a great week and hope you did too!
