It’s Mother Goose Day. It was created as a day to appreciate nursery rhymes and stories. Reading early childhood stories to your kids is a fun and memorable time. And, Mother Goose stories are the best of them all.

The term “Mother Goose” dates back to the 1650s. It referred to stories like Cinderella, Little Red Riding Hood , and Sleeping Beauty. It does not appear to represent a particular person. Many of these stories were written both before and after this term was first used. And, the stories were written by numerous authors.

We will celebrate this holiday with a Mother Goose themed class and a playgroup to follow!
