Baby wipes, hygiene wipes/ soap, disinfectant wipes, deodorant, and other toiletries(sanitary napkins as applicable), are necessary items that should be kept in young artists bags, to refresh themselves. Each young artist will have long days that involve a great amount--if not constant, physical activity, therefore, it is vital to make sure they have what they need to support their hygiene. Also, remind your young artists to pack any medications for allergies or in case of an emergency such as an asthma pump, arm/leg/knee brace, epipen, etc. We keep their medical information regarding conditions and injuries on file but please tell your young artist to inform their teacher daily if they have an injury or health related issues, at any point.
