LifeSPAN Gazette
November, 2021
Dear Preschool Families,
LifeSPAN lessons begin soon, and this month's lesson will feature apples! I will be introducing apples to your child's classroom using my famous "Mystery Box", so please keep the produce feature a secret until after the LifeSPAN lesson takes place in your child's classroom. BUT, don't wait until after the lesson to encourage your child to try apples! Fall is a fantastic time to enjoy apples whole or sliced, or to try out a new apple recipe like those listed below.
Happy munching!
