To Celebrate or Not to Celebrate 

Tuesday Feb 09
Online Event 6:30 PM

Talking and thinking about holidays in early childhood programs today is a “hot topic.” There is an increasing diversity of children, families, and staff who make up our programs. A lot of us have ideas of how to celebrate holidays, or some of us think we shouldn’t. There are some centres that choose ‘not to celebrate’, and others that try to celebrate all the holidays. As an industry we make the hard decision ‘to celebrate or not to celebrate’. For more information see their Facebook page.
