Kid day

Recently, Mrs. Schafer’s Child Development class had “Kid Day.” This event is somewhat like a daycare for half a school day. There were planned activities, arts and crafts, nutritional snacks, and story time with Mrs. Ludwig. Also, there was a surprise visit from Tigger (played by NHS’s own Paul Frailey).

The point of having Kid Day was for the students to have a chance to observe children using their motor skills. Also, it provides “real-world” examples of what the students have learned in the classroom. Mrs. Schafer summed up her class’s outlook on Kid Day: “It was fun, but exhausting.”
