Merry Christmas From AOHC!

 Hello everyone! Wow, can you believe it?! It's Christmas! Time has just flown by! Let's catch up with what's been going on at AOHC. Monday, Santa came to visit our friends and have breakfast. While some were slightly nervous about him, many of our friends were excited to see him and take a picture. They even got to talk about what they wanted for Christmas. Tuesday was Dress Like an Elf Day! It was great to see our friends dress up, even our teachers as well! Wednesday was Pajama Day along with a movie that our older friends enjoyed. Our teachers always enjoy a day where they can be cozy and comfy. Thursday, our friends brought Santa hats to wear. It was such a surprise to see some of our babies in a hat as well! They looked adorable! Lastly, we had our classroom Christmas party! All of our friends were just so excited to wake up from nap to celebrate with their friends. We hope you all have a wonderful Christmas with your loved ones! We appreciate all the families that love and support us throughout the year. Happy Holidays!

It's Time!!! DECEMBER IS HERE!

 Hi everyone! I hope you all had a wonderful Thanksgiving with your loved ones. November just came and went, and we're finally in the month of December! We are so excited for some Christmas cheer! Let's catch up on what's been going on! On Monday, infants read the story "Little Ms. Muffet" for their Frogstreet curriculum. It was so cute to see the teachers engage with the babies. On Tuesday, our Preschool and Pre-K classes discussed safety during the holidays. With all the pretty lights and candles, we must talk about what we are allowed or not allowed to touch. On Wednesday, classes made their own ornaments for our tree! Some classes made reindeer, and others made snow globes. It was great to see all the creativity. This week, we have made gingerbread houses using shapes; toddlers and preschoolers get to play a game called "What's in The Box?" for their Frogstreet activity. I do wonder what fun things the teachers will have in their boxes. On Wednesday, we will have special papers to have our friends draw what they want for Christmas to put in our magic mailbox. Santa cannot wait to see what our friends come up with. On Thursday, we will be counting gift bows, and on Friday, PreK 4 will have their Christmas Program! Our friends have been practicing and are excited to perform for their Mom and Dads! What an exciting couple of weeks!

Happy Thanksgiving!

 Hi everyone! I hope your week is going well! Let's catch up with what's been going on! Last week our friends did the Turkey Dance to get excited for the holiday, PK3 and PK4 did their Frogstreet activity by creating a train using shapes, National Gingerbread Day was Thursday so our friends were able to take home their own little gingerbread friend, and on Friday we had our Thanksgiving feast, which was super delicious if you ask me. 

Can you believe this week is Thanksgiving?! Time is flying by! So far, our classes have made their own turkey craft. It was great to see all the ideas each class had for this activity! Tuesday it was story time! We read, "There Was An Old Lady Who Swallowed a Turkey". We do wonder why she swallowed that turkey. Lastly, our classrooms went on a scavenger hunt!

We are so grateful to all the families that have and continue to trust us with their most special little humans. We are also so grateful for the teachers that have made such a difference in the lives of the students that walk through our doors
. We really couldn't be the center we are without them. We hope that this Thanksgiving, whether you're traveling or staying home, that you find joy in the things that you have been blessed with throughout the year. Happy Thanksgiving from the AOHC family!
