Early Childhood Center
School Spirit Day at the ECC On May 3, 2010, the children of the Early Childhood Center showed their love for Beth El and celebrated Spirit Day at the school. They all participated in a Scavenger Hunt, each class’ designed specifically for their age group by one of our teachers, Morah Rinat. Some jumped through hoops, others danced the limbo, most hopped, walked and ran, following the directions leading to the next clue. In the end, they all won when they found the watermelon treat in the refrigerator in their room. The children also ran an obstacle course set up by our gym instructors of Kickin’ Flips. At the end of that session, each age group performed the school cheer! (Bet you didn’t even know we had one!) ECC Teachers Trained in CPR and First Aid During the month of May, the majority of the ECC staff went through CPR and First Aid training given by the American Red Cross. IT is rigorous training in and of itself, but even more so because the course is given from 4pm -9pm after the teachers have already worked a whole day. Congratulations to all who became certified. Baby Steps and Beyond….Taking Off Full Steam Ahead In the last Beth El News edition, we announced the beginning of a new initiative to attract families to Beth El. WE started a “One-derful Ones” class for Moms and their 10-19 month olds to interact together in a fun filled, hands-on experience. The response was so overwhelming that we opened a second class to accommodate the overflow. We also offered a “What’s New Mommy” class for new Moms and their infants. This group encourages new Moms to share their experiences and support each other as they begin their crash course in parenting. It began in early May and the parents seem to be enjoying it immensely. We are planning to have classes like the ones above continue for new families and are planning new endeavors for this group so that their children may grow and learn together. Here is a list of our current offerings: • What’s New Mommy? 0-3 months • Watch Me Grow! 3-6 months • Creative Crawlers 6-12 months • ONE-derful Ones 10-18 months • Get Ready for School 18-24 months • Stroller Strides and other wellness programs In addition, we are planning some parenting programs for Mom and Dad and for the working parents as well. Our current offerings are: Camp ‘N’ Kids begins June 28 If you have a child between the ages 2 and 4, check out Beth El’s camp program. Your child can come any 3 to 5 days a week, half or full days. Each week the children will learn about a fun filled theme like the Circus or animals, and will have sports, arts and crafts, games, and experiences all related to the theme. Water sprinklers and water tables give the little ones a chance to splash and play while keeping cool in our beautiful play areas. Call Ellie Burstein, Camp Director, at 675-1166 for information.
