This fall season has been packed full of so many fun adventures in learning and family programs. For Fire Safety Prevention Week, the children of the ECC had a chance to meet some of the firefighters from the University City Fire Department. During their visit, students made their way around the perimeter of the firetruck taking notice of the variety of axes, ladders, and other equipment. 

The Starfish and Penguin classes along with some of their parents visited Thies Farm while learning about the fall season and harvest. Children took a hayride around the property, found their way through a haystack maze, zip lined, and each got their own pumpkin. 

On Sunday, November 10, we had our school book fair at the Novel Neighbor, an independent bookstore in Webster Groves. Miss Karen Kern brought her guitar and sang songs with us and children had an opportunity to decorate a book mark and create their own storybook while their parents shopped. 

We are thankful for the families that joined us for our Thanksgiving program, which we celebrated with music and favorite foods like mashed sweet potatoes, cranberry applesauce, cornbread and mini pumpkin pies.
