Lisa Doan has been taking some wonderful pictures of the students at My Small Wonders and now has them available online for you to view! A portion of the sales will benefit the center.

She would like to encourage you to view the pictures online but, rather than ordering through the website, just write down the file names/frame on this order form. Here is the price list for the prints.

Mrs. Lisa also has photo gifts available (some are on display near the center entrance) and will be onsite this Friday showing the rest, as well as a selection of Matilda Jane clothes, from 4:30 to 6:00 p.m. The price list for the gift items is here.

Please submit your order forms to Mrs. Nancy so that we can keep track of the sales and submit them to Mrs. Lisa as a group.

Mrs. Liliy (Skippers, 2’s) and Ms Bronwyn (Woolly Worms, Infants) had the opportunity to attend the International Infant & Toddler Conference in Tulsa this month. They found it to be an inspiring conference with unique offerings by internationally known presenters. They learned of treasures left by Dr. Emmi Pikler and Magda Gerber, both of whom revolutionized the way we look at infancy and the early toddler years. They saw and experienced the roots of cutting-edge early childhood practices through Relationship-Based Care from organizations that have been teaching these methods for more than sixty years, with hands-on experiences and archival footage.

Many talented and caring people devoted their time, expertise, and energy to making this conference happen. Presenters from near and far joined together because of their commitment to the Pikler Institute in Budapest, Hungary. The combined efforts of everyone helped support the continued research and training of infant and toddler professionals throughout the world.

Mrs. Liliy and Ms Bronwyn brought back a lot of good ideas and we look forward to implementing them into our program.
