Notes: The group was small due to not having an April program and changing the day. A meeting room was not available on a Monday so the program was held on a Wednesday. One thing I did learn from this is that Monday is the preferred night so I will try to keep Family Story Time on Monday evenings when they resume in the fall. Attendance also drops in the spring when children start their outdoor sports activities. Since I knew the group was going to be small, I chose more complicated crafts than I usually do. The mobile was the favorite and I could have skipped the wreath. The group also enjoyed the stories. The game was a big hit. I had a hard time fooling this group. The older children were very good at guessing. I did manage to fool them once by putting the flower under the same object twice.
