The children have begun to design their Valentine's Day pockets!  On Friday many took turns working with Mrs. Hunt (Olive's mom) at the Art Table.  Thank you Mrs. Hunt for helping the children complete the sponge painting!


The children will finish sponge painting their Valentine's Day pockets on Monday.
They will fancy them up, and we will hang them.

If your child finishes their valentines at home,
 it is helpful if they come to school.  We will begin delivering valentines that are ready mid week, thanks!  We will open valentines on Friday!  They are excited! 💕
