As I was planning story time today, I realized that I didn’t blog about our December story times at all! We had problems with our internet a WiFi for a couple of weeks. We also got security cameras installed so that took up some of my extra blogging time. I…
Today we had seven friends join us. It was a cold and rainy morning so our daycare kids didn’t walk down. I think there might be a virus making its rounds too so we had less kids. Our theme today was bunnies. We read two books about bunnies, did four…
