Would you like to see your pet featured in our hi-fashion gallery?

Its simple, just dress up your pet in a fun costume, take a photo and bring it in to the Children's Room.

We will add the photo of your pet to our display in the hallway. Whatever your pet - dog, cat, lizard or hamster we'd love to see a picture of them in costume!

Photos will be on display from January 14-31

This month in Pajamarama our theme was Friendship. We read some great books, sang songs, made a cute paperdoll craft and had a snack!
The first book we read was 'Chicken Pig Cow' by Ruth Ohi.
We followed this with 'Will You be my Friend' by Nancy Tafuri. Then 'Katie Loves the Kittens' by John Himmelman and 'A Splendid Friend Indeed' by Suzanne Bloom

After making and dressing two paper doll friends we had a snack and headed home (already dressed in our pajamas) for bed!
