Hi everyone! I hope you all are enjoying the summer sun, although we could definitely do without the extreme heat! Let’s catch up on what’s been going on around the center this past week.
We started the week with Car Art, and it was such a hit! Instead of traditional paint brushes, the children used toy cars, wheels, and other fun tools to create their masterpieces. It was a great way to encourage out-of-the-box thinking and show that art isn’t limited to crayons and paper. Giving children the freedom to explore creativity in new ways helps build confidence, imagination, and problem-solving skills, all while having a lot of fun!
Tuesday was Silly Sock Day, and it brought so many smiles. Everyone showed up in their brightest and most colorful socks. From animals to characters to crazy patterns, the kids had a blast showing off their sock style to their classmates.
On Wednesday, we got a little messy with Dirt Search Day. The children loved digging around and discovering little treasures in the dirt. Our toddlers were especially adorable—some dove right in, while others weren’t too sure about the mud. It was a great sensory experience and a whole lot of fun.
Thursday was our first water day of the summer, and it was a hit! The weather was perfect for splashing around, and the children had so much fun cooling off. We also added a little learning to the mix with sink-or-float experiments, which kept the kids engaged and curious as they played.
We wrapped up the week on a high note with a visit from The Science Guys. Their silly, interactive science show had everyone laughing and learning. It was such a fun way to end a week full of excitement and exploration.
