Make a Snowflake for Sandy Hook Elementary Students

Posted on: Wed, 12/19/2012 - 12:25| By: GinaBina

 

This was posted on our facebook yesterday, and wanted to share with those not on fb.

 

Help with a snowflake. When school resumes for Sandy Hook, it will be in a new building. Parent-volunteers are working to ensure that the students are welcomed back by a winter wonderland with the entire school decorated with as many unique snowflakes as possible. The Connecticut Parent-Teacher Association encourages students to be as creative as possible, remembering that no two snowflakes are alike. Please make and send snowflakes by Jan. 12, 2013 to

In all honesty, I was only an avid Pinterest user for the first month that I signed up.  Then, I realized that I probably wouldn't do any of these pins/ideas on my personal account.  The public PeoriaParent.com pinterest account just has a few, but they are proven & done by me.  If you don't have pinterest, then I'll just be listing my proven pins below.

In a Kindermusik class you'll play, listen and dance to music that will impact you and your child in profound ways. So whether it's twirling under a sea of scarves, experimenting with age-appropriate instruments, singing about a scampering squirrel, creating a musical ensemble, or snuggling in your lap during story time, Kindermusik speaks your child's language and offers her(and you!) the best music and moveent class available.

“When I was a boy and I would see scary things in the news, my mother would say to me, “Look for the helpers. You will always find people who are helping.” To this day, especially in times of “disaster,” I remember my mother’s words and I am always comforted by realizing that there are still so many helpers – so many caring people in this world.”
— Fred Rogers
