Roller Skating at Lloyd's

Yesterday afternoon we went roller skating at Lloyd's! The kids did so well, almost everyone tried roller skating. Some of the kids kept them on the whole time while the majority of them took them off and then ran around and danced to the music. It was a lot of fun for all of us and so great to see so many smiling faces. We had a few tears but for the most part it was a very successful outing!



Valentine's Party


Yesterday we had a fun filled day at STA, we celebrated Valentine's Day early with the kids!

The kids had an opportunity to decorate cupcakes or gluten free chocolate brownies!
 
They also had an opportunity to make some Valentine's crafts - a heart fish or a heart penguin.
 
As an extra treat, we put on a short Valentine's video in the rainbow room!

All Aboard...it's Transportation Month!


In the Rainbow Room you can find the big car ramp and a variety of vehicles. As well as the box cars the children can wear and either walk around in or ride on a scooter in the hallways.

 

 
In the Sun Room, the hot wheels ramp is set up on the wall, we have an ocean set up in the corner with a boat and paddles. Children have the opportunity to pretend to go fishing or dress up as pirates. We also have a bunch of blocks and boxes for the children to build ramps or make tunnels or build a city. 




 
The Tree Room has the art easel set up with red and white paint for Valentine's day. The sensory bin contains moon sand and construction vehicles. As well our West Jet Airplane has made a return!
 





 
In the Gym, Tina our OT Assistant set up a fabulous Valentine's inspired obstacle course.
