Kicking off the month of January at the Lincoln Learning Center is one of our favorite safety programs - "Learn Not to Burn" presented by the Downers Grove Fire Department! A firefighter from one of the Downers Grove fire stations will visit all of the preschool students and will teach them about "stop, drop and roll" and fire prevention. The firefighter will also put on all of his gear as if there was going to a fire. The goal of this demonstration is to show the children that he is still the same person with all of his gear on and not to be afraid of him or run/hide from him if he has to come to their home. He is the good guy trying to help them and is not scary.
The Lincoln Learning Center is very fortunate to be able to provide such a wonderful, fun program for the students. Make sure to ask your child about it...I'm sure they will have a lot to tell you!
As a reminder, there is no preschool on Monday, January 20 in observance of Martin Luther King Jr. day.
