| Message to Parents and Students |
Enjoy this time together and allow your child to be just that, a child. Explore the little things together, read,
play, and pray together. This time will pass all too quickly - so put aside the chores (at times) and enjoy each other.
Also, use the time in the car to make-up songs about their names, phone numbers, addresses to helpd them learn
them. Also, while in the car, look for shapes and letters in the various street signs. Learning them is a game. |

ABC books - There are so many on any topic that your child would like.
Repetitive books that can be read along with, such as "Brown Bear, Brown Bear". Rhyming books
are also great, like "Silly Ally". Check with the librarian. |
