Andrew @ School

 He LOVES school just like his mommy!

 

When I come to pick him up he is usually outside (they play from 4-4:30ish) and I often find myself sitting in the car (hiding) so that I can watch him in his natural habitat.  He is so full of joy and movement.  He often is pushing or riding on one of the moving toys or playing with the toys in the sandless sand box, but he's always smiling.  When watching him, I feel confident that he is at the right place and he feels safe and secure with his class and teachers.

 

When he sees me, he runs over and points at me with a HUGE grin on his face.  Most of the time, he gives me a crashing hug and runs off to continue playing or to 'show' me something cool.  I'm not allowed to leave his presence, but he's content to keep playing.

 Miss Simone is his favorite teacher (she followed him from the baby room) and he is clearly attached to her more than anyone else.  I tease her that she'll need to follow him to the two year old class in April too.

I love walking into their room--there is always a new sensory craft they've made (they come home eventually too)--right now the room is decorated with their flying feather bats, sequined magic hats, and ghostly (feet) prints!

 

Andrew attends The Growing Place in Riverside.

If you're looking for an amazing place for your child, this is it!

And no, I'm not getting anything for saying that.
