We Found Fossils!!!

It turns out that we may be home to a few extinct beings! PreK One found DINOSAUR FOSSILS yesterday!!!! We've got some young archaeologists at work here! 

Science teaches children to try new things and explore with confidence!

Science is building community with friends and our teachers. 

Science teaches, "Hey, I may need your help with this!"

Science enhances attention. 


Science allows us to explore new tools that are not used in day to day settings. 

Science even encourages imaginative play! "Let's be dinosaurs while we search for their bones!"

Science encourages language development. Fossil was the word of the day. While pronouncing it, we explored it's letters in print. 


Stop by to explore our SUMMER PROGRAM, THE POWER OF PLAY! 
THERE'S NEVER A BETTER DAY TO PLAY THAN TODAY!

Water Play Kick Off!

Today was our first SUMMER WATER DAY!!! We have Water Play every Friday during our Summer program. This year's theme is "The Power of Play".  Each week has a weekly theme and our first week's theme is "Construction/Black Play" Each Friday day we will tie our weekly theme into our outdoor fun, so we built water towers out of pool noodles today! We experimented with funnels to see how fast the water traveled to the other side! And we just had some good ol' sprinkler fun too!

Testing it out!

Let's catch it!

Splish, Splash!

Water Towers!


Math and science during water day?

We are always learning! 

Come by for a tour! We have a few spots left for Summer!

Summer Ready!

This week we are preparing for our upcoming summer program called, "The Power of Play"
What better way to prepare for summer than playing with and exploring sand!?

Sand is relaxing, develops our sensory and gross motor skills, and is MESSY FUN!

The Academy prides themselves in providing quality care and education that focuses on the whole child and our Frog Street Curriculum coincides with our philosophy. The Frog Street curriculum prepares the children academically but also meets physical and social emotional development.

Today, Preschool 3 practiced walking on a "tightrope" by the edge of the carpet. This activity is team building, encouraging, confidence boosting, super fun AND meets gross motor milestones!

Check it out!

Steady!!

Maybe I'll walk on the dots instead!

I don't even have to look! 

Showing off my super powers on the tightrope!


Come by and see us in action!

Puppy Fridays

Teaching gentle hands with animals!

He's so sweet!

Running laps!

Our Toddlers even get Puppy Friday visits!

Ready, Set, GO!

We can't wait for next week's puppy!
