February Visitor






Officer Robin Short visited the
Rainbow Lions, Tigers and Bears to talk to them about "Stranger Safety." She taught the children to say NO! to a stranger, to run, run, and run and to tell Mom, Dad, babysitter, aunt, uncle, grandma, grandpa, teacher, etc. Officer Robin, also, had McGruff the crime eating dog puppet and a tape with a song about Stranger Safety. This a a very important lesson for our preschool children.

Rainbow Playhouse














These photos show February's playhouse theme which is Rainbow Post Office. Each month the playhouse has a different theme to promote socio-dramatic play and to enhance reading and writing literacy. Other themes throughout the year include: Rainbow Restaurant, Rainbow Hospital, Rainbow Grocery Store, Rainbow Fire Station, and Rainbow Barber/Beauty Shop. The children have a lot of pretending and assuming a role in their pretend play.
