Snow!

Snow! What an amazing gift for our kids, a reason to feel good about raising children in Vermont. Snow offers both opportunity and challenge to young kids. It’s difficult for little legs to walk through deep snow, but the physical growth that happens when trudging, walking on slippery surfaces, and figuring out how to move a body through a foreign substance is amazing. The imaginary play possibilities are endless - snow forts, snow people, snow kitchens! Putting on snow gear is a test of perseverance, but gives numerous opportunities for kids to practice self-care skills. We hope that YOU are enjoying the snow as much as we are!

You'll see some pre-snow pictures below. It's amazing how much the woods have changed in just a short few days.

Don’t forget that Friday is our Winter Solstice Celebration with the fourth grade. We’ll have a light dinner of soup and cornbread (made by your children) in the cafeteria at 5:30. We’ll then have a lantern walk out to the woods to have hot chocolate, sing some songs, and eat dessert. It’s going to be cold, so DRESS WARMLY!!
