Holiday Learning Is Fun!

During the holiday season consider including some simple activities that will strengthen the skills your preschooler needs for reading and learning success.

• Listen to audio books while traveling to visit family and friends.
• Listen to holiday music, and sing along, while wrapping presents. 
• Revisit memories and tell stories about holidays and family traditions.
• Read recipes together as you plan holiday meals.  Write a shopping list and find items at the grocery store by reading signs and labels.  
• Ask your child to write place cards for the table.
• Enjoy reading books together - old family favorites, stories about winter or holiday celebrations all over the world. 
• Work on printing skills by writing a letter to Santa or a faraway relative, or a thank you note for a gift.  If you haven't stopped in the Early Learning Center lately, we have a special table set up for your preschooler to write his own letter to Santa!
