September News







September is going to be a busy month for us!

We will be working on getting to know each child individually, 
as well as working on large and small motor skills,
how to use our words (giving them the words to say, even if they can not talk yet), and focusing hard on eating habits 
and table habits.



Don't forget to get out  your Help us Grow sheet to help us with verbiage at home matching verbiage at school!
(See document below)





Toddler Room Verbiage:
Feel free to hang this printout on your fridge for daily use!
You can say: “Food stays on your plate/in your bowl” (encourage child to move food they may not want to eat, onto another area of their plate)
 “Cup stays up”
“More please, All done please, Help please, thank you”
“Your spoon is for scooping/fork is for poking”
“Use your words” (you may have to give them the words to say)
“Have soft hands/feet” (when hitting/kicking)
"Teeth are for food" (when biting) or "OUCH, biting hurts!"
“It’s Mommy’s/Daddy’s turn” or “My turn”
“Your turn is over” (used when a child has put down an item and is trying to take it back from someone who now has it).
If you have any questions on any other words/phrases or if you need help finding the words to give your child, feel free to email me!  We have a lot of ideas :) 

Donations needed:
24 ears of corn (9/10 week)
