Kroger Cares
Just a reminder to use your Kroger Cares card! Our last statement showed that we need less than $800 to receive a pay-out. We still have cards available if you need one. Send in $5 to get a $5 gift card tied to Shining Light CPC. Reload the card each time you shop at Kroger and we receive a percentage of the sale. It takes $5000 worth of spending before we receive a check, but we are close to that! (Do some Thanksgiving shopping!)

MIscellaneous
It was a fun week for us at Shining Light. The children were absolutely adorable, and our teachers got into the spirit of it all too, so we had some good laughs. Thank you to all the parents who brought treats and goodies for their class. Hopefully, we didn't send them home with too much sugar...I know our dentist will buy it back from you if need be :)
Next week we are out on Tuesday (6th) for the election (Wms. Co. is out that day). On Wednesday and Thursday we are going to have Patriotic Day. No party affiliation I can assure you! We are going to talk about our flag, country and what an election is. The colors of the day are RED, WHITE and BLUE, so have your child wear one or more of those colors! We will do a couple of fun activities to hopefully get our point across.
We are going to have one last big Scholastic order for the year. I set November and December catalogues on the front foyer desk. Please feel free to pick up as many as you want. I plan to place one order per week culminating with our last order on November 28th. This is the month to get your Christmas books, so please help us by placing an order! I also asked the teachers to make a wish list of books for their class. Reading such an important part of our day, and so if you are looking for a way to give back to the classrooms at Christmas, a new book would be just the ticket!
It was brought to my attention that if you place a Scholastic order online, the parents will receive a $5 off coupon for the next order. Scholastic tends to be hit or miss about sending us those, but we do have some and plan to send those home next week. I was confused about them, but I have someone who helps me out when I get confused :) (thanks, Marcy!) Once we see how many we have and how many more coupons we need, I will contact Scholastic to get it all straightened out.

Don't forget to set your clocks BACK on Sunday!
I will be excited not to get up in pitch dark now every morning!

Vitamins
Congratulations to Preschool 2 (Ms. Betsy, Ms. Laurel and Ms. Pam) for collecting the most vitamins for our medical mission for both sets of days!
Mon/Wed collected 60 bottles!
Tues/Thurs collected 7 bottles!
They will be celebrating next week with a pizza party, and their class pictures will be posted in the foyer.
A big thank you to all parents who brought vitamins for our mission trip down the Amazon. Our church members leave the end of October, and I know the children will be blessed by your contribution.

Fall Parties and Costume Parade
Next Tuesday and Wednesday we will have our Fall Parties and Costume Parade. The teachers should have notified you of what they need for the parties. Obviously, the little guys in the Nursery won't do much in the way of "partying" and each of the class activities are determined by their age. Nursery, it is completely optional whether you want your child in a costume or not.
If the weather is pretty, we do a costume parade outside (exception is Nursery since some are still not walking well). The children and teachers walk along the sidewalk getting treats along the way from our administrative/support staff. They end their walk with a trip to the church offices for another treat up there. Hopefully, it will not rain! If it does, we will do the parade inside and go from room to room.
We ask that you please send your child in his/her costume. If they want to change out of the costume, we ask that you have play clothes on underneath. It is supposed to be chilly those days, so the extra layers will be a good thing! Because we are a church and a preschool, we ask that you do not dress your child in any scary costume or one of a "devilish" nature (devil, witch, ghost, etc.). This year you will see our teachers dressed up as storybook or Disney characters!
