The Dirt On Dirt

Did you know that research suggests that getting dirty while playing is beneficial to children?  On Friday, as part of the Outdoor Challenge, Rooms 4, 5, 6, 8 and 10 will be engaging in mud/sand play.  Please ensure your child is dressed in old clothing - he or she will be getting dirty!  A change of clothing to be clean and dry at the end of the day is also recommended.  Please direct any questions to your child's teacher.  If you are interested in reading more about the benefits of mud play, please click here to read an article from the National Wildlife Federation.
