The Garden School Tattler


We have a field trip today. We have been invited to go to Kid's World by Justin's parents. It's a lovely gift. We will leave at 10:00 and return at 1:00. Lunch is included.

We've been practicing the play and the older children know a lot of their lines. It's going to be very cute.

Yesterday we tried artichokes. Some of the kids really liked them, and some kids thought they were really retched. It's one of my favorites and contains more protein and more fiber than any other vegetable I can find. It was a fun meal.

Currents are next.

We've been going outside a lot and we are working on washing hands with soap. This is a very important part of training. We soap our dry hands with liquid antibacterial soap like hand cream right to the elbows, and then we wash it off. By the time a child has done that much rubbing, hands are clean. Please work with children at home. Wrists and forearms should be clean. Please encourage children to ask to have their shoes tied. Please make sure shoes fit.

It's light jacket weather. Heavy coats are a nuisance because children don't want to wear them.

Flu is still out there. Please do NOT send children to school who have vomited the night before.
