Label, Label, Label!
Please remember that it is important to label all of your child’s belongings. This
includes all sippy cups, baby bottles, water bottles, clothing, bedding, masks,
etc. Please label each item with your child's first and last name. We always do
our best to keep each child’s belongings separate, however, things can get
mixed up on occasion. Labeling all of your child's items each day is very
helpful in reducing this. Please see the office if you have any questions.
