Now that Stella is no longer going to Ms. Robin's house I wanted to find ways for her to interact with other children. I know that she is really going to miss her friends there. So I decided to get her involved in some classes at the Gilbert Park District. The only problem is that for the majority of the classes you need to be either 2 1/2 or 3 by the first day of class. Stella misses that 2 1/2 cut off by two weeks. I did, however, find one class that she could take... ABC Art.
Today was the first day of class and I have to be honest I was a bit nervous about how she would do, she was youngest kid in the class and I was hoping she wouldn't cry... but she instead she was so excited.

She walked right in and did great. She sat with the other kids when they read the story at the beginning. Did great during centers. And even played with the other kids at the end. Although the class is only 45 minutes, once a week, I think it will be good for her.

She looks so happy! I put Ella in an art class when she had just turned 2... It was a complete disaster. Glad it turned out better for you and Stella!!
