I tell parents at our interviews that I take children on field trips and that they would know well in advance. Today we did story time at the library and it was sooo nice to get out of the house and my dd (the oldest) had so much fun. dck also had fun. We did run into a nap/lunch issue as my dd didn't want to sleep and dck fell asleep on the way home and then woke up to eat and then had problems getting back to sleep. But I think if we leave earlier, go to the library get books and then do story time and come back I can eliminate that problem.
So I am thinking about doing this every week on either Wed or Thurs or possibly both if I don't get burned out. Do I just send a notice home, dcf we are now doing story time every week. Or is that somethign I should be doing here at my house? It just seems like they like being in a larger group, the library has little props and songs and new books each week. I mean, I do new books too but they don't sit well for me as they do when they are there. If that makes sense....
I also signed my daughter up for an activity on mon at 330 because I normally do not have a dck that afternoon. on occasion I have a dcg that will come on mon afternoon but I decided we just wouldn't go that day because on thurs my other dd has an activity and they are picking up early that day at 530... But I am starting a new dcg that also has a rotating schedule and it looks like she will be here every Mon at that time for the next 3 weeks. So do I just tell mom that we are now doing dance and I can take her with me and bring her back? I don't make a habit of running errands while I have dck but it's 30 min right down the street from my house. And they didn't have a set schedule when we interviewed So I wasn't sure when they were coming until yesterday. Wwyd on both accounts?
thanks
