Wednesday Update :-) Oct 13 to 15

Although this has been a short week, it has been a busy one!  We celebrated Yan’s birthday—HAPPY BIRTHDAY Yan! We have continued learning about families, where we live, the seasons, and we started talking about Halloween! We also had two special guests come in and talk to us about Divali! Thank you Priyanka and Nidhi—we loved the story, putting sparkles on our Diyas, and decorated Diya cards with rangoli rice!
