Ready for Circle Time!

Today was our first day back after summer break at the Tenderloin Children's Playground. In this group, free exploration time is followed by a free lunch program - and then we gather for circle time. I'm not sure which child got the ball rolling, but all on their own, once they had finished lunch, the kids started moving the chairs into a circle for singing, story-time, and their own book to take home. Caregivers, parents, and teachers alike were impressed with the impact this time has on these young children...enough to remember and anticipate our circle time even after a 3 month break!
