Children benefit from the joys of education as they expand their horizons, learn different viewpoints, and develop an appreciation for school. In celebration of this bond between youth and learning, Christian Chapel Day Care in Onalaska, WI, is excited to celebrate the Week of the Young Child from April 16 to 20. This Christian child care and day care center takes pride in instilling students with confidence and a passion for learning.

They have an exciting slate of activities lined up for the week—all centered on subjects that foster enthusiasm for everything from reading to music. A special musical guest will energize the children, while a magic show will leave them mesmerized. There’s also a guest reader to make story time an unforgettable event. For those reading buffs, Dress Up Like Your Favorite Storybook Character Day will be the most anticipated day of the week—and the children will love guessing each character!

Those themed days are a major part of the Week of the Young Child and provide day care students with a fun opportunity to express their creativity and bond with their peers over different subjects. Vegetable Day, for example, encourages children to channel their inner farmer and break out their plaid shirts, denim overalls, and straw hats. They’ll even receive a visit from a farmer, who will teach them all about what he does. 

Other themes include Yoga Day, Pajama Day, Favorite Color Day, and Hat Day. Imagine the possibilities these topics invite children to explore—from learning about rainbow hues to wearing silly hats to learning calming yoga poses, there’s something new for every child to absorb during this engaging week.

The schedule of events will be available at the day care center soon. To learn more, visit Christian Chapel Day Care’s website.
