We rest every day right after lunch. It is not a "nap" time, though some children do fall asleep. It is about 30 minutes to be quiet, decompress, and recharge for the afternoon. Each child will need a small cloth bag. (I will provide at meet the teacher night) Please fill it with a small blanket or beach Towel, small pillow, and a quiet toy (i.e. book, stuffed animal, barbie, quiet car, small baggie of legos, notebook and pen, coloring book). Everything must fit easily into this bag. We don't have much storage room in our classroom so if you opt to change bags please make it no bigger. This bag will be returned home ever friday so you can wash the contents . Rest mats are wiped down weekly.
