Blowing off the Winter Blues

Do your preschoolers seem a little more tired or cranky these days?  Research tells us that these gray, cold, drizzly winter days can be among the most depressing for all of us.  Time to shake things up and inject some fun into our time with the youngest learners.  Build a fort of the sofa cushions and "camp out."  Visit the library for some new books.  Download a new app for the phone or IPad--try Bubbles--as therapeutic as popping bubble wrap!  When we change up the routine and just have fun, the blues will go away.  Try it!
