Spring Consignment Sale – Thank You!
A huge thank you to Brittany Hammond & Sara Robb for all their hard work in making the spring sale such a success.
Their determination, marketing skills and organization has proven successful. Thank you so much Brittany & Sara for everything this past year. Sara Robb will be stepping down this year. We will be looking for someone to join Brittany next year for the sales. If you are interested in co-chairing the sales for next year, please stop by the office. We would be happy to discuss further with you.
From the Consignment Chair people, Brittany & Sara:
The 4CCN Spring Consignment Sale was a huge success! Parents: we appreciate all of your dedication, hard work, and volunteer efforts (especially through those windy evenings!). Consignors: you are precious. You spent hours collecting, tagging, and bringing over all of your sale items. You provided needed items to so many families. Buyers: you are just as important. Without your desire to bring purchased items back home to your kids from the sale, our fundraiser would be mute.
Also, thanks to Donna Rinaldo who did the accounting for the sale. Our total sales grossed over $8,000. The money raised for the sale funds important school items such as our beautiful playground equipment and maintenance, in- house field trips, and classroom equipment. Also, many of the remaining items that did not sell were donated to three amazing local organizations. What a great feeling for all of us to come together as a school community to make such a large event occur that ultimately benefits all of our children as well as our greater community. 4CCN is a fantastic community!
Our Fall sale is scheduled for the week of October 22-24. It never hurts to get started tagging early, so if you just consigned with us, let us know if you want to keep your code. Please start encouraging those in your playgroups, neighborhoods, and other close circles to consign in the fall as well as the sale is open to the public!
In-house Field Trips
One of the many benefits of our semi-annual consignment sale is that it provides the funding for in-house field trips. Last month we had Blue Sky Puppet Theater present “The Not So Little Pigs.” On April 17th we will have Under the Sea, a learning adventure of what lives in the Chesapeake Bay and in on May 8th & 9th, Squeals on Wheels farm animal petting zoo.
Since we only have Under-the-Sea coming on Wednesday, April 17th, our friends, and family who are not here on Wednesdays, are welcome to join us at 10:15 for the presentation. It will be held on the first floor in the Weaver Room (just at the top of the stairs through the door).
DOES YOUR CHILD EXPERIENCE DIFFICULTY WITH ANY OF THE FOLLOWING?
· Struggling with handwriting?
· Difficulty learning new motor skills?
· Avoiding coloring, drawing or cutting?
· Clumsiness? Covering ears during loud noises?
· Always “on the go” or fidgety?
· Bothered by tags on clothing?

The Treatment and Learning Center is offering FREE screenings in April. Occupational Therapists are skilled in assessing how a child’s sensory processing abilities, fine motor skills, visual motor skills, and gross motor skills impact performance and function in daily life including self-care, play and academics. Proficient skills in these areas are imperative for children to be successful in the classroom environment. The screens can also be used as a preventative measure to ensure that your child’s development is on track and the child will have the foundation skills necessary to be able to learn. Screenings are available for all ages of children and take 30 minutes.

19 Funny Facts About Valentine’s Day
1. Cupid Actually Started Out as A Greek God
Let us begin our Valentine’s Day fun facts list with the most common symbol for love –
Cupid with his cherubic looks and angel wings. He was originally the Greek god, Eros.
Eros was the son of Aphrodite, the goddess of love and procreation. Cupid is known to
shoot two types of arrows – one to make people fall in love and one to make them hate
each other.
2. ‘X’ Was Originally Not a Symbol For Kiss
Though we sign off our letters and texts X’s these days as symbols of kisses, this was
not this letter’s original purpose. In medieval times, when people did not know how to
sign their names, they would simply sign off with an X. To show their loyalty and
affection, they would then kiss the X before sending the letter. Isn’t that one of the most
interesting facts about Valentine’s Day?
3. Candy Hearts Started Out as Medical LozengesSave
The popular Valentine’s Day candy, candy hearts, started out as medical lozenges
for the throat! Boston-based pharmacist Oliver Chase invented the machine that
produced small medical lozenges. When he saw the popularity of these small pop-in
medicines, he turned them into candy with cute messages on them.
4. Roses Symbolize Love
Roses are said to be the flowers of love. Venus, the Roman goddess of love, used to
adore red roses. This story made people start spreading love by giving roses to the
object of their affection. The gift of a rose either on stems or in bunches of petals is an
artful expression of love.
5. Different Places Celebrate Valentine’s Day in Different
Ways
Valentine’s Day is celebrated in many ways around the world. In Japan, women give

Friends Day. Valentine’s Day is all about the expression of love.
