Winter Build

Many thanks to the 17 parents and youngsters who flew through the list! What got accomplished?

playground shade (which will become more shady with a vine or two)

lights mounted to improve hallway visibility in evenings

cubby earthquake secured

improve log cabin visibility

nourish raised planter beds with worm composting

cull yucky plastic toys

organize shed

scrub, scrub, scrub

Is there anything Home Sweet Home cannot do?! In gratitude to the great minds behind the designs and the hard working early risers.

Our next Build is in April and will be our GREEN DAY - dedicated to caring for our gardens.

Making Sweet Music

The Music Committee met again this morning and mapped out a curriculum called "Instrument of the Month". The goal will be for children to engage with a musician and learn about an instrument each month (or more frequently.) Parents are invited to sign up for their speciality and/or volunteer a friend with this talent.

2011

January - Paul (Emmett's dad) fretted instruments

February - Dina (Cosmo's mom) viola

March - Clark (Cosmo's dad) accordian (date tentative)

As a specific day and time are nailed down, we invite all our Home Sweet Home children to join in for this special celebration. Parents, please feel free to drop-in for the music event with your child even if this is not your regular attendance day.

The Joy Through Music event is Friday, December 17, 2010 from 10:00AM - 12:00PM. There will be more details released by parent leadership. We appreciate that not all parents can join us at this time, so we are trying to film the event and release to parents on dvd.
