February 6th - 10th

Thank you for helping to make the 100th day a HUGE success!  We had a great time celebrating. 

We are excited for the Valentine's Day share on Tuesday at 10:15!  Don't forget your camera.

We had a visit from a Mad Scientist on Wednesday.  We learned about measurement and everyone got to take home a pedometer.
