More Preschool Classes

I'm late in posting this but we had our second "One Day Preschool" on October 22. I feel like we're getting into a groove with the format. We spent some time in the park across the street (still too many mosquitoes!) gathering leaves, acorns, and pine cones for our fall-themed craft. One parent who was there even found some sweet potatoes growing in the park and dug them up-weird.

Everyone seemed to have fun and the moms who were there said they would bring their kids again and invite friends, so we may have some momentum going here. Photos in the next post.

This week we'll be taking things to the next level and start our weekly "Oyako Club." Oyako means "parent and child" in Japanese. It's going to be similar to "One Day Preschool" except that since it's on weekday mornings, the focus will be on younger kids, two and three years old, who aren't yet in preschool. I'll be using the U of N curriculum (simplified of course) and some sensorials.

Unrelatedly, it looks like we have someone to run the evening English school. That's a big blessing, because I feel like we've been hopping on one foot with the preschool project being the only thing happening at the building.
