What a week!

Started with going to Kindergarten orientation and learning that Aaron will not have music class in Kindergarten!  Wow!  I was pretty flustered by this, so I spent a few hours searching for other outlets to expose him to music.  I found a music school in Des Plaines, but then I came across a neat sounding summer camp called Kaleidoscope kids at Camelot Park.  It starts June 11th and goes til August 3rd and meets Mon-Weds-Fridays from 1-4 pm.  For 5-6 year olds.  Also learned that they now have lock down drills at school, I guess it is the sign of the times.  Today Aaron had his last day of pre-K and had to say goodbye to Mrs. Chamberlain and Mrs. Grande and Campbell.  I wonder if Aaron will see any of his peers in Pre-K in high school.  Summer is about to start!  Our pool opens tomorrow!!
 Games, crafts, songs, outdoor play, and various preschool activities make up this summer camp which is held indoors and out. Children learn to play with each other in a group situation and should wear play clothes.  Snack time has been added back to this program due to high demand.  A drink is provided daily.  All children are required to be toilet trained by the start of the program. Pull-ups are not acceptable.
 Swimming
  • Three-six year olds swim only in the wading pools.
Aaron really has learned alot in Pre-K at the beginning of the school year.  He couldn't use scissors and didn't even know how to write his name.  Now he can basically write anything you ask him to as long as you tell him the letters!
