🍂❄️ Cold Weather Car Seat Safety ❄️🍂
Did you know that bulky winter coats and snowsuits can make car seats less safe? Puffy layers flatten in a crash, leaving dangerous gaps under the harness. To keep your little ones both warm and secure:

Dress children in thin, warm layers instead of thick coats.

Buckle them snugly in the car seat harness.

Add blankets or a car seat–safe cover over the straps for extra warmth.

Always check that the harness is tight enough—you shouldn’t be able to pinch the strap at the shoulder.

Keeping kids cozy is important, but safety comes first. A snug harness means better protection every ride, even in the cold! ❄️💙

🌾 Farm Sensory Fun! 🚜
Our little learners explored the sights and textures of farm life with hands-on sensory bins filled with corn, straw, tractors, and friendly animals! 🐷🐮🐔
From scooping kernels to discovering hidden animals, this activity sparked curiosity, storytelling, and fine motor play—all while connecting to our farm theme.

There’s nothing better than baby giggles and snuggles to brighten our day. We’ve got one very happy little one in our care—and our hearts are full! 💛

Our toddlers got creative yesterday, using paper, craft sticks, and glue to build their own barns! Each child explored shapes and textures while making something uniquely theirs.

Our preschoolers brought the classic song to life yesterday!🎶 Each child colored a red barn and friendly animals, then attached them to craft sticks. As they sang, they opened the barn doors to reveal each animal—making sounds, building confidence, and giggling along the way. 🐮🐷🐔
A joyful mix of fine motor practice, imagination, and music! 💫

🎶🎨📚 Music, Movement & Masterpieces!
Our preschoolers have been busy exploring sound, rhythm, and creativity in every corner of the classroom!
📚 In our read-aloud Tuba Lessons, children discovered how bold lines and illustrations can tell a story—then drew self-portraits showing themselves dancing or playing music. 🎨 For art, they created “The Perfect Note” collages using colorful paper strips and music note outlines—each one a burst of musical imagination! 👟 And during our Keyboard Walk, kids practiced letter recognition and sound matching while moving across a giant floor keyboard.
These activities blended literacy, fine motor skills, and gross motor play—all through the joyful lens of music. Learning is always in motion at Small Steps!

⭐🎨 Tiny Artists at Work! Our 1-year-olds had a blast making star stamps with cookie cutters and paint—plus they created their very own music mobiles!
