daily, but before- and after-camp care services will be offered from 8 a.m. But once summer break begins on June 6, the program will expand to include summer camp starting June 10.Ĭamp will be scheduled from 9 a.m.

Generations After School Program started in early April in a former church building at 424 Letton St.įor now, the program is offering after-school care for youths ages 5 to 13 from 2 to 5:30 p.m. Cleary alludes to (but does not actually explicitly reveal) Daddy being the actual tooth fairy, that part takes about 2 min.you can easily see it coming and you may want to skip ahead if you want to make sure that you can preserve that little fiction.A new child care option is opening in Ramona just in time for the school summer vacation. Early in this series Ramona loses a tooth and Ms. Cleary sometimes gives away (or almost) the secrets of things like Santa Claus/tooth fairy/etc. I highly recommend this series for anybody with young children. Channing’s performance is wonderful, and she really brings to life all the characters. As adults, my wife and I found the stories endearing and funny as the exploits of Ramona are very familiar to anybody who has had (or has) young children. They are small things, but they are told beautifully and I actually think my 5 (soon to be 6) year old daughter enjoyed them all the more because she could so well relate to the feelings (and trials) Ramona was having and experiencing. Her trials are things like not being sure her kindergarten teacher likes her, or dealing with the fallout of a bad tantrum. at least so far, we have only gotten through 4 books) Nothing huge happens here, no monsters need defeating, no saving the world, just little Ramona trying to learn how to grow up and be a good person. The first book starts with Ramona age 4 and each subsequent book she is a year older. Basically this series follows the growth of a precocious little girl, named Ramona, and all her little innocent escapades as she grows up. About the story itself.I never read these books as a child so was unfamiliar with them when I started. My wife was also engrossed and for the first time on that vacation I was able to experience a bit of quiet, the whole family quietly listened to the antics of Ramona and enjoyed her little story. What a great choice!!! My 5 year old daughter was engrossed by this story and did not speak a peep for 6 hours straight as we drove the last 400 miles from Northern Cali to Washington. While on vacation and driving the length of California back up from San Diego I downloaded this book for my family to listen to as we drove the long slog of I5.
