Activities
Infants
This November, we are excited to welcome new children into our group and support everyone as they become comfortable with their new surroundings, educators, and friends. We will focus on building relationships through familiar routines, songs, stories, and nurturing interactions. As the weather gets colder, we will continue to enjoy outdoor play whenever conditions allow. Infants will have opportunities to explore fallen leaves, feel the cool breeze, listen to the sounds of nature, and observe seasonal changes. Indoors, we will offer sensory experiences with safe autumn materials, board books, music, and opportunities for movement and exploration. We kindly remind families to dress their children appropriately for outdoor play, including warm layers, hats, mittens, and suitable footwear. Please label all outdoor clothing with your child’s name so we can continue to enjoy fresh air and outdoor experiences comfortably throughout November.
Toddlers
JR Toddler
Throughout November, the toddlers will continue to learn and explore through sensory activities, art, music, stories and hands-on play. We will take advantage of milder days to spend time outdoors and go for walks around the neighbourhood, observing the seasonal changes and exploring our surroundings. As the weather gets colder, we will continue to encourage curiosity, independence and learning through everyday experiences.
SR Toddler
November will be a month of learning, playing, and exploring the changes in the season. I will continue helping children feel safe and comfortable in the Senior Toddler room. We will practice our daily routines, such as washing hands, eating, diapering or toileting, resting, and transitions. As the weather gets colder, we will explore late fall and the beginning of winter. We will learn about cold weather, wind, bare trees, falling leaves, and winter clothing such as hats, mittens, boots, and jackets through simple activities. The children will enjoy sensory play, art, music and dancing, reading books, outdoor play, and hands-on activities. I will continue following the children’s interests and give them opportunities to explore, learn, and develop at their own pace.
Preschool
This November, we will explore Remembrance Day through simple activities about peace and kindness. Preschool children will also be celebrating Diwali as we learn more about the cultures in our community. We will continue to follow the children’s interests through play with blocks, cars and dramatic play. Our dramatic play set up will be a Fall Coffee shop with some sweet treats. We will also focus on sharing, taking turns and building independence as we practice putting on our outdoor clothing. Colder weather is here so we ask all children come with hats, mitts, warm jackets and boots. Thank you!
School Age
Throughout November, our school-age and JK/SK programs will recognize Remembrance Day through meaningful discussions and creative activities. As the weather gets colder, we will embrace the changing seasons with outdoor play, winter-themed crafts, and group games. Children will continue to explore their creativity, build friendships, and enjoy a variety of fun, hands-on activities!
