Learning through play is the best way!

It’s earth appreciation week! We had so much fun this week- especially with the creative expression activities and sensory bin!

Our dramatic play center invited the children to build Easter baskets for themselves and their friends! We were able to incorporate name and number recognition, colors, and counting!

The classroom area got a weekend face lift. I spy a new friend...

In the first few years of life, nutrition is of high importance. Not only are healthy habits being introduced, but proper nutrition for brain growth is essential. Our friends love this simple, vegan chia pudding. Chia seeds are packed with fiber for happy tummies, iron, and omega 3 for brain development. They love topping their bowls with fresh cut fruit and sliced almonds!

A bit of a divergence from the traditional community helper theme, this week our theme was communities. We focused on how people in communities help each other, using the books Good People Everywhere and Counting on Community. We also infused the works of artists Henry Matisse and Paul Klee into our creative expression activities.
