Happiest of Birthdays to you, JN!

We hope year 5 is the best one yet. 

One of the most magical things about Ambrose is our celebration of each child, in so many different ways. We may not have a holiday party or Halloween parade, but we find ways each day to focus on what makes each child special and celebrate their success, growth, milestones, and anything else we can think of. Birthdays are no exception.

During our morning meeting I asked friends if they knew why today was special. Some informed friends knew right away what was special about today.

JN had ideas as soon as I asked how we should celebrate...

ANIMALS!

We read animal books, we played with animals in various ways, and snacked on animal crackers. We will finish our day by creating 

I was a day full of JN - we hope you feel celebrated, joyful, and full of love. 

Please see the below information from our Parent Handbook regarding Birthday Celebrations!

Birthday Celebrations Birthdays are an important milestone in the lives of young children. Birthdays place children at the center of attention for one wonderful day each year. At the Ambrose Family Center, children in each classroom decide as a group how to celebrate each other’s birthdays through a meaningful “birthday tradition”. Teachers will share with parents/guardians the “birthday tradition” for your child’s classroom which does not include bringing treats from home. Please honor the very special classroom experience designed by the children as they celebrate each other’s birthdays. Enjoy what is created for your child in honor of their birthday. Please let your teachers know if you do not wish for your child’s birthday to be celebrated.
