Monday, November 22nd Turkey Bingo
Thanksgiving is such a fun holiday wrapped in so much tradition and such warm and cozy feelings. Children and families can delight in Turkey Bingo, played just like traditional Bingo, while spending a little time with family and discovering matching and good listening skills. Once a player has five in a row (going any direction-vertical, horizontal or diagonal), then call out BINGO to win.
Tuesday, November 23rd Princess Day
Delight in being a princess for a day and join us in the celebration of National Princess Day. All adults and children are encouraged to wear their finest royal clothes! Just like those princesses in the movies and books that we love so much, today is a day about celebrating little boys and girls who learn to listen, be kind, prudent, forgiving, and how to influence people in a positive way. Join us for a chance to meet Princesses Elsa and Princess Anna. Train to be a knight and take part in our Royal Art Projects!
