Child Care and Daycare Schedule Wichita KS

Scroll down for an example of our
WINTER
daycare schedule.

SUMMER is a time for the great outdoors, and we try to make the most of it. We still cover all our
basic learning, but times will vary to allow for plenty of outdoor time. During hot weather, we try to
'beat the heat' by going outside immediately after breakfast, and have water fun activities in the
afternoons.

Scheduling is subject to change
depending on the children I have in child care.
For example, for older children, we may do PEOPLE of HISTORY rather than a COMMUNITY
HELPER, or learn to TELL TIME rather than work on a number. Our schedule changes to
accommodate
the children enrolled

Below is an example of our Preschool winter schedule. Because of short attention spans, times
may vary. If the children become restless, we allow for more free time or outside play (weather
permitting), then come back to our planned activities and lessons.

Monthly: Virtue of the Month and definition to memorize (moral characteristics that makes us
good citizens and have good values. Examples: respect, responsibility)
