Where Do I Display My Child's Artwork?

When your child brings their work home from school or creates something at home,
       CELEBRATE itDISPLAY it, and LOVE it.
As they get older, the steady stream of little doodles and other class projects will start to dwindle. Enjoy their little scribbles and have fun creating your family’s own personal work/art gallery. When visitors come to your home, they can see the schoolwork too and have the chance to ask questions or praise your child again.

Also, that feeling of accomplishment is a vital foundation for a strong work ethic.
Displaying your children’s work is one way we can help promote the joy of a job well done.
You can always slap a paper on the refrigerator with a handy magnet but giving select pieces of school work a special honor can be more rewarding.
Displaying your child’s artwork sends a strong message to your child:
*I value what you do.
*You are creative, smart, or hard-working.
*Work done well is beautiful.
Show them how proud you are of them!
Here are a few ideas on how to display your
child's work at home.
How do you display your child's best work?

Halloween Fun!

Room 5 was full of laughter, giggles, and COSTUMES as we celebrated Halloween!  
Bravo to all the families who came to make a spider snack with their kiddo to end the month-long theme of spiders.  
We now know that MOST SPIDERS are helpful to our environment.  

Plus, we can tell you MANY facts about spider...                  just ask me!
 
 It melts my heart to see all the love and memories made!
