It’s that time again! Daylight Savings Time ends this Sunday, November 2nd. Before you cozy up for the weekend, remember to set your clocks back one hour on Saturday night and enjoy that well-deserved extra hour of rest. 😴🍁

Here are a few gentle Fall Back Tips to make the most of the time change:

🍎 Double-check your devices:
Most smartphones update automatically, but it never hurts to make sure your clocks and coffee maker are ready for the new time.

☕ Use the extra hour for yourself:
Take time to catch up on sleep, enjoy a quiet cup of coffee before the kids wake up, or spend a few mindful moments just breathing and resetting.

🌅 Soak up some sunlight:
As the days get shorter, natural light can lift your mood and energy. Open your blinds early or step outside with the family for a little morning sunshine.

Let’s fall back with kindness, calm, and care for ourselves and our loved ones. 🍂✨

Daylight Saving Time ends on Sunday, November 2 which means an extra hour of sleep for adults but little ones may need a few days to adjust ⏰

Here are some tips to help preschoolers and young children get ready for school and adjust smoothly:

1️⃣ Adjust Bedtime Gradually – Shift bedtime 15 minutes earlier each night before the change and practice waking your child at school time a few days early

2️⃣ Morning Light & Routines – Get outside in the morning to help reset their internal clock and keep bedtime routines consistent with reading or quiet activities 🌞

3️⃣ Healthy Breakfasts – Serve balanced morning meals to help kids stay alert and energized 🍳

4️⃣ Prepare the Night Before – Pack backpacks, lunches, and pick out clothes to reduce morning stress 🎒

5️⃣ Evening Wind-Down – Limit TV or tablet use before bed and be patient if your child is cranky during the first few days 🌙

Today is Make a Donation Day, a perfect reminder that small acts of kindness can make a big difference. Donating items like books, toys, or school supplies not only helps others but also teaches children the value of giving. 💛

Even a single book can spark a child’s imagination and open doors to learning and adventure. Your generosity, no matter the size, creates brighter moments and stronger communities 🌟.

✨ Reach out to friends, family, or support groups.
✨ Set realistic expectations and ask for help when needed.
✨ Seek professional support if stress or anxiety becomes too much.

Prioritizing your well-being benefits both you and your children 💙.

Last week we gathered to celebrate the grand opening of The Hills Preschool in North Las Vegas, owned by our long-time partner and Early Head Start advocate Kathy Yoder-Bass! 🎉

The preschool features 11 classrooms, a commercial-grade kitchen, and thoughtfully designed learning spaces. It will serve up to 260 children ages 0 to 5, providing opportunities for growth, discovery, and whole-child development. 💛

This milestone is a great example of how collaboration and dedication strengthen our community and invest in the future of our youngest learners. 🌱
