Good things for Shaw Sundogs - March Newsletter
Dear Parents,
In these strange times, we can expect that kids are waking up wondering what the day will bring. This newsletter offers some suggestions for daily activities to help you get the kids off to a positive start. Use whatever works for you.
We miss you!
