Yesterday our school was visited by Firefighters and a Firetruck! Our students were able to go through the inside of the firetruck and see all of the cool gear the firemen wear. We also learned the 3 important fire safety rules.🔥🚒
1. Go to bed at night with your bedroom door closed.🛏️
2. Stay low (under the smoke)!
3. Don't play with matches or lighters.

Children experience all the same emotions as adults, but they aren’t yet equipped with the tools to handle those feelings. The first step toward understanding their big feelings is helping them learn how to recognize and name their emotions. At The Goddard School - Westerville - Executive Parkway we like asking open-ended questions like “What is something that makes you happy or sad?” or “Can you show me what face you make when you are happy, sad or angry?” This gives children the opportunity to share their emotions and show what they know about them. This exercise had Goddard students using emojis to identify each emotion in honor of World Emoji Day. 😊😕😆😥😴 Give it a try with your little one!

Did you know that between the ages of 2 and 5 years old, children ask an average of 40,000 questions? We say, bring them on! Our Wonder of Learning™ education program, found only at The Goddard School®, is the most innovative, well-researched program on the market, focused on how children learn best: through play, exploration and following their natural curiosity. By asking questions and finding their own answers (then asking more questions!), children develop a lifelong love of learning.
Take your summer to the next level with these easy hacks!
• If you’re little one isn’t a fan of sunscreen, make it a game and paint it on with a make-up brush!
• If beach days are in your future, keep the sand there using talc-free baby powder. It will wipe off easily.
• Sticky popsicles are a child’s must-have in warm weather. Prevent a mess using cupcake liners to catch any drips.
• No bathroom for miles? No problem! Bring a training potty with you for road trips. Stick a disposable diaper in the potty for even easier clean up.

It's BUG WEEK!🐛💚 All of our classrooms have dived right into the first theme of the summer and it has been so fun watching our students learn all about bugs! ALSO, on Tuesday we introduced Caterpillar friends into our older classrooms and we are in the process of narrowing down names for our little friends before there go into their cocoons, so if you think of any at home with your little one please give us your suggestions!🦋🐞
At The Goddard School®, we believe every color belongs in the world, just like every child! Our Schools are spaces where children feel loved, seen and valued for who they are because we provide a safe community where everyone belongs.
Happy Birthday to Ms. Jeannie, one of our amazing Infant Room Teachers! Have an amazing day!🎂
