Music and Pizza! Fun Activities!
The theme for the event is music and movement, and there will be music, a story about the importance of movement to foster brain development, food, a book giveaway, and more! Daycare providers, paraprofessionals, and families are all invited to celebrate together. Here is a link to some resources and activities created by NAYEC to celebrate young children this week through movement, music, and art. Please use these ideas as jumping-off points to create your own meaningful experiences! We would love to see and hear about what you do!
