Shining Stars



I had the distinct pleasure of spending this morning with some wonderful little stars.  One of the songs we practiced was twinkle, twinkle little star.  This video is with out a doubt my favorite song from the Potty Time Series and makes me smile when I think about all the amazing lil' and shining stars with whom I have the privilege of sharing sign and play time!

Let's start from the very beginning ...


There is no doubt that starting at the beginning can be challenging!  For most of us we set our minds to do something and we want to hit the ground running.  It's awesome when that happens, but it is so important that when it doesn't we choose to be gentle and patient with ourselves while still striving for improvement.  This is one of the most important goals I set for myself as a life long learner and it's critical to practice in the learning environments we create for our sprouts. 
 
I love multi-age learning environments!  I think they are great for learning, stress reduction, and socialization.  However, it can be hard for moms of the youngest little to not feel a bit intimidated by the amazing flying fingers, giggles and coos of the 12 month plus sprouts.  This is why it is so important to pre-register and to level set your goals and initiatives for class time with me. Each child and mommy is unique.  I personal create and use a goal sheet for each of my pre-enrolled students unique to their needs.  Be sure to reach out to me if you would like to review that planning information one on one.
