January 2026 Monthly Resource Toolkit
A FREE Resource Toolkit Created Exclusively for Leaders in Early Childhood Education!
January can feel like a reset and a grind all at once…. New routines, winter energy, and classrooms that are finding their rhythm after winter break. This month’s January Resource Toolkit is designed to support you through that stretch, without adding more to your plate.
Inside, you’ll find resources that help you connect with staff and families in simple, meaningful ways. The Staff Learning Spotlight focuses on an (updated) printable, The Art of Observation. This offers practical, grounded ways for staff to notice what’s really happening in classrooms and to use that information to respond with intention. It’s reflective, actionable, and designed to spark real conversation.
You’ll also get pre-written newsletters for both staff and families that you can copy, paste, and adjust as needed, plus easy engagement ideas for the month. Do them all, or just choose one! But I do my best to create ways that build connection without requiring extra prep, planning meetings, or late nights.
These toolkits aren’t classroom activity packets. They’re created specifically for directors who want to strengthen relationships with parents, set the tone, and support their teams while juggling everything else that comes with the role.
If January ever feels long, this toolkit gives you one less thing to think about. And a few thoughtful ways to start the year feeling steady and supported.
AND IT IS FREE! So download it, use what works for your center, and if you find it helpful, I would be so grateful if you would subscribe and share it with another director!
