SUMMER HAS ARRIVED!





After a long, wet, spring it appears we are finally going to have summer! With the kids out of school, it is time to let your creative juices flow to keep them busy and happy. Here is a simple activity to do with your children...write a poem! Have the kids take turns writing a line that begins with the following letters:

V_______________________________________________________________

A_______________________________________________________________

C_______________________________________________________________

A_______________________________________________________________

T_______________________________________________________________

I________________________________________________________________

O_______________________________________________________________

N_______________________________________________________________


We'd love to hear what your kids come up with so simply hit the comment button and share your finished poem with us!


Last month we had an excellent training about using Love & Logic in our peer parenting. Shirley Brown-Miller, one of our own fantastic peer parents, share her knowledge and expertise with us. We all learned a lot from Shirley and enjoyed her cute personality.


June and August will be basic trainings for those interested in becoming new peer parents. We won't meet again for advanced training until September 17th - so mark your calendars!
