Snack Revisions and Reminders

Snack Expectations
Each week a different child/family is responsible for sending to school the “fixings” for our snack.Our initial snack calendar extends past Christmas into January. In most cases each child/family will be responsible for bringing in a snack for either two or three consecutive days, (depending on whether your child comes two or three days). If for any reason you would like to switch with someone on the schedule you may do so... just let me know who you have switched with so I know snack is covered for that week. Snack time is a great time for fine motor skill practice. My plan is for the kids to prepare, and serve their own snacks each day. (this includes setting the table.)Drinks: We only serve water at snack time as each child fills their own cup, with no harm done if a spill happens. (Additionally new friends help each other by holding the cups for each other.)Oral language development is a very big deal in preschool........... so every opportunity I have to encourage your child to speak purposely, and in complete sentences I am going to take advantage of. So whoever brings in the snack also explains what the snack is and how to prepare it.Birthday Snacks: If you would like to send in a birthday snack and it is not your week for snack contact the family who is bringing in the snack and let them know that you will be sending in something special so we do not have double the snacks on that day.Birthday party invitations: We are happy to send them home only if everyone is invited.
