What to do for kids who are leaving?
I have two siblings who will be leaving at the end of the month--with the possibility of occasional drop-in care after--and I'd like to do something special for them for their last day. Both boys, 1 year, and 4 years. Any ideas?

Walmart does really fast (& cheap) photo books. A nice keepsake for them if you take photos of their time with you.
Children are great imitators.
So give them something great to imitate.

We are doing photo dvd's of "xxxx's days at daycare" and we make a poster card with photos and all the kids hand prints. I also give every child a hardcover book with a message inside from my family.

I do a collage from Walmart with pictures from the time they spent with me.

I scrapbook a memory book for every child leaving my daycare. It also includes a graduation diploma and a heartfelt letter from me. This takes me about 40-50 hours to complete so it's quite a gift and the people who have received these memory books are so appreciative.

I also have a digital frame with everyone's documentation on it in the playroom so the kids can watch themselves and reflect on how much they've grown or interests gone by.
You're so attentive, kids must love you best.
