It's All About The Balance!





Our Ducks worked on their Vestibular System today. The Vestibular System is located in your inner ear and works with sense of balance.  It's so important to give toddlers Vestibular System exercise and experience! Balance beams, standing on one foot, walking on different level surfaces are just some examples to help your child work on their Vestibular System.  If you don't help your child find safe ways of working their sense of balance, your child will naturally find ways to exercise this system.

Welcome Back Aristeia!








Aristeia (Tia) joined our class today! We missed her so much! Although she was quiet in the morning,  Tia was a chatterbox in the afternoon! Jackson was so happy to have a friend!
