Dear Chai Tots Parents,
Happy Monday! We will be busy this week, continuing working on art for our art show and continuing to work on moments of independence in the classroom! We are noticing so many moments of growing independence in our infant class! The babies are beginning to explore more confidently, make choices about where they want to be, and try things on their own. These small moments are such an important part of their development.
We’re offering time and space for the babies to move, explore, and practice new skills without rushing or interruption. Whether it’s reaching for a toy, holding a bottle, or attempting a new movement, we’re encouraging their efforts and giving them the support they need to try again. At home, you can encourage your baby to hold their own bottle or practice feeding themselves with a spoon during meal time as well!
It’s so rewarding to watch their confidence grow as they discover what their bodies can do. We love supporting these early steps toward independence and celebrating each child’s unique journey.
