Global Day of Play

On Late Start, February 7th, we will have a Day of Play! Our goal is to raise awareness about the necessity of unstructured play. Watch this informative video about Global Day of Play. 

Here are some school wide guidelines:

• Students can bring toys from home as long as they are not dangerous or electronic.
• Toys may NOT require batteries or electricity. No devices.
• The only exception on the electronics rule would be a board game that has an electronic timer, an electronics play kit, or similar.
• No toys that simulate weapons.
• Some ideas: board games, dolls, Legos, blocks, trucks, cars, race tracks, playing cards, empty cardboard boxes, markers, jigsaw puzzles, blankets (for forts), social games (charades, Pictionary, etc.)
• We cannot be responsible for lost or stolen items so please keep those special items at home.

PLAY! NO SCREENS – NO STRUCTURE – ALL DAY LONG!
