Our Favorite Kindergarten Memories

On the first day of Kindergarten, Mrs. Miller read The Kissing Hand.  The story is about a racoon named Chester that talks about his fear of going to school.  Most of Chester's fears are shared by the boys and girls in Mrs. Miller's class.  Chester's mom helps him feel loved and secure by kissing the center of his hand.  She reminds him that her love is always right there no matter what.  If he feels lonely or sad during the day all he needs to do is hold his hand to his cheek and he will feel her love.       After reading the book, we celebrated by designing a special painting and Kissing Hand Poem for our families.
