April Showers Bring May Flowers!!! Please make sure your child comes to school with boots and a jacket. Maybe even some extra clothes "just in case." If it is wet and muddy, kids will not be able to play on the playground and will be limited to the pavement, if they do NOT have boots. (Not a favorite among many.) We also are on the floor in our classroom a lot, so having muddy boots by their cubby vs on the floor where we sit and play, is a much better solution.
