On those rainy winter and spring inside days at Nelson we’ll be learning lots of ways to move our bodies to get some energy out. We started by borrowing some ropes and trying some Chinese jump rope! We had tons of fun, I don’t know about our friends in room 103… Click on the smiley for some pics!

Merry Christmas Nelsonites! I hope everyone has had tons of fun over the past week celebrating the holidays & spending time with your friends & families! 
It’s been a nice and relaxing time during Kennedy’s 3rd Christmas. After a quick trip to the aquarium, we jumped onto a ferry to Vancouver Island to stay with Kennedy’s Grandad and Grandma. She’s having lots of fun exploring local beaches and collecting rocks, shells and beach glass. She’s also reading lots of Christmas books and playing with gifts from Santa. Enjoy your 2nd week of winter holidays everyone and I can’t wait to hear about all your celebrations when we return in 2019!

Jingle’s last week with us had her climbing the walls, hanging from zip lines, playing Battleship and gifting us some candy canes! I sure hope she was proud of our behaviour these past 3 weeks and will give us a thumbs up to Santa!
