We had another great day!

At the arts and crafts gazebo, we had an artist visit to teach us how to make a paper frog with a blower for its tongue!

In the field we tried out different stations. We played with reusable water balloons, water squirrels, hula hoops, and we played human ring toss.

At Pick a Project we did an Ooblek experiment, made tin foil boats, made bracelets, or tried a water bottle challenge.

As always, during choice time we stayed cool on the slide or played in the playground.

Tomorrow we will be going to the movies! Please send your child in wearing the green sunshine group t-shirts that were sent home today. Let Jess know if you did not receive a shirt!

What a fantastic first day! We had so much fun! In the field we played name games to learn each other’s names, played sponge relays, and played with the parachute.

At Pick a Project we had a special bubble show with Mr. Vinny! There were also magnet tiles to play with and bubble experiments!

For arts and crafts, we painted shells, used model magic to make prints and creations, and colored pictures with our friends.

We also had choice time where we could choose to play on the playground or get wet on the slide!

Linked below is our permission slip for the movies this Thursday. Don’t forget to wear your shirts (we will give out shirts tomorrow morning). Thank you!

Hello Sunshine Families!

Happy 4th of July! We cannot wait to see everyone next week at our open house on Monday, July 8 at 5:00pm or on Tuesday, July 9th at 9:00am for the first day of our program! Can’t make it to the Open House? Check out our Virtual Open House. In the meantime, below are a few updates for the summer 2024 session:

• Swimming Update for Week 1
• Wacky Week Schedule Changes
• Inclement Weather Plan Update

Fino Pool May Not Be Open for Week 1.
We may need to change our swimming plan. Fino Pool is still not open to the public. They are waiting for final inspections. They are hoping for a July 8th opening date, but with our first visit approaching, we may need to make a change of plans. We will send out a message as soon as possible to let you know what our plans for Friday will be, but we may need to wait until July 8th to hear about the pool.

Week 4 (Wacky Week) is Going to Have a Wacky Schedule!
For Wacky Week, we had to change the field trip day to Wednesday, July 31, which we had originally had scheduled as the talent show. The Talent show will be moved to Thursday, August 1st. Please mark this in your calendars because we hope to see you there in the audience for the show! The field trip for week 4 will be XtremeCraze Family Fun Center in Foxboro.

In Case of Inclement Weather, We Might Be Able to Access the Medway VFW!
Depending on availability (the Medway VFW has some programs already scheduled), we might be able to use the VFW instead of having a rain cancellation. We will monitor the weather closely and keep families updated via text if there will be a change of location. In the case of a VFW day, bus riders will be picked up as usual and dropped off at the VFW. Parents who drive their children will drop off and pick up at the VFW.

Other odds and ends:

• 2024 Bus Route 
• Want to donate? Check out our Amazon Wish List! We are also always accepting bottled water!
• Can’t make it to the Open House? Check out our Virtual Open House
• Sunshine Group Social Story

Thanks for reading our blog and keeping an eye out for text messages from us! Looking forward to a fantastic summer!

See you soon,
