I think the best way for me to remember things is by seeing them or having someone show me how to do something. To reach parents that are visual you could reenact what happened and show them how and where something happened. To reach an auditory parent you can explain to them exactly what happen by simply using your voice. A kinesthetic parent understands by doing not just listening or seeing what happens.

In the last few years we have learned of an increase in peanut allergies in children. Due to finding this out we no longer allow peanuts in our center. Anything containing peanuts, peanut butter, or made in a factory will peanut will not be allowed. Some nut free products that are allowed are: oreos, nilla wafers, pretzels, pudding, yogurt, animal crackers, etc. This is very serious and we hope that you understand our efforts in trying to prevent an emergency. Thank you for your understanding.

To be dressed for success you do not want to wear baggy clothes that hang off of you. You need to wear clothes that fit your size but not too tight. Your clothes should not be too revealing but it is okay to show a little skin. Another big thing is dressing age approiate, you do not want to wear something a teenager would wear, you want to look professional. A lot of people think to dress for sucess you have to wear suits all the time which is not true. You can still have a cute outfit and look professional.
