Important Reminders

A few reminders for the end of the week. Happy Friday! Have a blast at this weekend's Harvest Fest!

1) Field Trip on Monday
This NEXT Monday, the 8th, afternoon we will be traveling to Honey Creek Acres. Please be sure to leave your child's booster seat near the Conference Room in the Entry Way. We will also be traveling the following Monday, the 15th, to Bloomsbury Acres. We will need your child's booster seat on this day as well.

2) Harvest Fest VOLUNTEERS!
We are still in need of parents to signup for two of our three game shifts (a 15 minute shift and a 30 minute shift - 15 minutes to run the game; 15 minutes to teardown). We are hosting the Rainbow Penny Toss game (a super, simple penny toss game). All supplies are gathered, the game's instructions are available, and Dayna Ballantyne is hosting the first 30 minute shift (set up and running the game), thank you, Dayna! Please go to signupgenius.com to help out with our Harvest Fest game. We wouldn't be able to provide these fun activities without your support.

Don't forget to bring in a canned food for Willowwind's Food Drive for the River Community Church Food Drive. The Harvest Festival will also host a parent potluck. Food assignments are set up by last night. See you below. Thank you so much.

A-D Fruit
E-H Vegetable
I-N Main Meat or Veggie Dish
O-Q Apple Cider (2 containers)
R-T Dessert
U-W 50 Paper Cups, plates, napkins
X-Z Bread

3) Snack and Water Bottles
We are going Kindergarteners and get hungry during the day. What's for snack and what's for lunch is a tricky mystery for our Kindergarteners. Often times, our friends snack and lunch bags are left empty for Afternoon Snack after hungry tummies from Lunch. Please help your child understand what to have for snack and for lunch. A separate pouch for snack can be handy to distinguish between food for snacks and food for lunch. Encourage an at-home conversation that helps your child sustain enough food for the entire day. Our bodies are growing and it is important to have food for both snack and lunch. Also, please be sure your child has a water bottle for snack. Milk and juice should be saved for lunch. Thanks for your help.

4) BoxTops and Printer Cartridges
Remember, you can conveniently drop off your box tops and printer cartridges here at Willowwind. We will recycle them for you and Willowwind can earn points back for supplies for your child.
