Fall Fest & Trunk Or Treat

We had so much fun celebrating Halloween with our Fall Fest & Trunk Or Treat.  We had face painting, a bounce house, a photo booth, and sensory bins.  We also had a D.J, a balloon artist, and food.  We also had some amazing trunks that were decorated.  What is your favorite Halloween activity?

 

Halloween Safety Tips

 Spooky Season is among us and Halloween is fast approaching.  We would love to share some wonderful safety tips for Trick Or Treating to make sure everyone stays safe and has fun as well.  We hope you find these useful.

• Cross the street at corners, using traffic signals and crosswalks.  Look left, right, and left again when crossing and keep looking as you cross.

• Trick or Treat with an adult.  Children under the age of 12 should not be alone at night without adult supervision.

• Keep costumes both creative and safe.  Decorate costumes and bags with reflective tape and, if possible, choose light or bright colors.  Also, choose face paint and makeup instead of masks whenever possible. Have kids carry glow sticks or flashlights as well.

• Drive extra safe on Halloween.  Slow down and be especially alert in residential neighborhoods.
• Try to only Trick or Treat at houses with brightly lit porches.
• Children should memorize their home phone number and address in case of an emergency.  Include a communication card with contact and medical information in your child's costume.
• Make sure to tell your children not to share candy with friends that have food allergies.  Also, parents should examine all candy for strange lumps, smells, rips, defects, and expirations dates

Brentwood Fire Department Visit

This week we had the Brentwood Fire Department come visit our School!  The kids thought the big fire truck was so cool.  They got to see all of the different tools and equipment that they use.  They also got to actually step inside of the truck!  Thank you so much to The Brentwood Fire Department!

 

Spooky Season

 We are kicking off Spooky Season at AOPP.  We made some cute puffy ghosts and played with a pumpkin seed sensory bin.  We also treated our amazing staff with a charcuterie pumpkin spread and a haunted hydration station!   What is your favorite Halloween treat or activity?

Super Hero Day

 This week we celebrated National Comic Book Superhero Day at AOPP.  Our school was definitely safe from bad guys with all of the Spiderman, Superman, The Hulk, and Ironman running around.  We even had superhero masks that we handed out!  Which superhero is your favorite?

All About Art

 We have been busy with all kinds of Fall art projects this week!  we have been working with all types of art.  We painted with corn.  We also had fun with playdoh and Fall Playdoh cards.  We made Fall trees with yarn as well. There was even performance art with a shadow puppet show too!  What type of art do you like to use?              

                                                        

It's Beginning To Look A Lot Like Fall

 This week at AOPP, we have been getting into the Fall spirit!  We did a fun sinking apple activity and we made Fall wreaths.  We also read There Was An Old Lady Who Swallowed Some Leaves.  We did a Grab & Go Lunch for the parents as well for Family Friday.  What is your favorite activity to do during Fall?
