Can you believe it??? I was originally looking for a program for the fall, but by surprise, we found a program for two year old kids that meets for three hours a day, twice a week. Henry is SO ready! The main goals are: good self esteem, getting along with others, and comfortable separation from parents. Works for us!
His teacher's name is Miss Sue, and he'll be with seven other kiddos in the class, plus an assistant teacher, Miss Nancy. There are six boys and two girls.
Henry had a very good morning. I stayed there with him today to help with any separation issues. He really only had one, and it happened during the first transition from classroom to sand. He must have really wondered where he was. The rest of the morning I notice that he looked around for me a few times but then continued playing. The day looked like this: first they had classroom playtime followed by sand playtime, playground playing, painting and snack, music, and finally, more playtime in the room. Half of the moring is inside and half is out...we love that. Henry's biggest challenge will be sitting for short chunks of time...he just wants to keep exploring. Thursday is pj and bear day...can't wait!
Next Thursday is snow play day. A truckload of snow will become a hill in the parking lot for sledding and making snowmen! Stay tuned for more...
he has learned: no helmet, no bike
Henry wasn't quite sure what to think about this

Looks like lots of fun! My niece just started a similar program and loves it. Enjoy, Henry!
