Please Share Your Culture With Us!A simple definition of culture is, “A way of life.” It is our goal to encourage a sense of belongingness, promote an appreciation of others and enrich children’s experiences by integrating into our activities information that reflect our individual children’s background. One way we can do this is by learning about each child’s family background, celebrations, and traditions.Please take a few minutes to share with us your special family days or favorite activities and how they are carried out in your home.
