o Small Wonders will start the day off with an Easter Bonnet parade (in school from classroom to classroom. We are asking that parents help their child make their Easter Bonnets at home. For example, you can decorate any hat, cap, or a paper plate with bunny ears, plastic eggs, Easter grass, etc. Imagination and creativity are all that is needed! Every year we have some great bonnets to parade with! The parade will begin at approximately 9:30AM.
o Our Easter Brunch will be from 10AM – 11AM. We will provide the “special snack time” brunch, which will include mini pancakes, syrup, butter, juice, Go-Gurt yogurts, and fruit (strawberries & blueberries.)

- On Friday, March 29th, we are closed for Good Friday.
- There is no school for the week of Monday, April 15th through Friday, April 19th. No tuition will be due for this week. This is posted in the Student Handbook which was given out at enrollment in September.
Special Reminders
Don’t forget to label your child’s new Spring jackets, hoodies, and hats. It is very helpful for the teachers when we have to dress them for outdoor play time. Also, please label water bottles.
Please refer to the school policy/handbook for the health/illness information. Please call us if your child is absent and let us know why. We all want to try and control the illnesses and viruses that are around us. We can air out and disinfect the center, but we all need to use common sense. If your child is ill or is not acting his/herself, please be aware.
Please provide napkins and spoons for your child’s snack and lunch time. Any donations would also be appreciated.
Any questions or concerns, please speak with Marilyn. The May newsletter will have fall registration information in it. Please let your friends know that we do have openings for September of 2024.
Please do not allow your child/children to bring any of their toys from home into the center. We cannot keep track of and be responsible for toys from home. Please only bring nap related items and put them directly in your child’s cubby.
Special Thanks
