PARENT INVOLVEMENT

Blue Igloo is a vibrant community that depends on the active and enthusiastic participation of parents. On a day-to-day basis, parents and/or caregivers join us for our daily routine.  In addition, parents are encouraged to support the Blue Igloo community in a variety of ways.

Parent Penguin Day

Each family is responsible for being the Penguin Parent two to three times per year.  Parents, not caregivers, help on their assigned day and are required to provide snack for all the children, assist with clean up help and help the teachers as necessary. Parents may also be asked to bring in a small supply item such as paper towels or water. Don’t worry, your dedication is rewarded with some parents-only fun throughout the year! 

Special Events

Blue Igloo loves a party! From our Halloween extravaganza to the graduation ceremony, parties play an important role in bringing the Blue Igloo community together, and parents are welcome to volunteer for these special events. In addition, parents are welcome to share birthdays, songs, family traditions, stories, art projects, etc. with the group. We also hold several donation drives throughout the year for Blue Igloo families to give back to the local community.

Throughout the Year

There are also many opportunities for moms and dads to catch up without the little ones in tow! There are Moms’ & Dads’ nights out, holiday & year-end cocktail parties, preschool information seminars, and educational classes – to name a few!
