Thinkery Kids Calgary

This beautiful ladybug house gave children a chance to explore nature closely and carefully. He used the magnifying glass to observe the ladybug, count its spots, and learn more about this tiny creature. Most importantly, he remembered to gently release the ladybug back where it belongs. These meaningful hands on experiences are helping children build love, care, and respect for nature.

Children’s minds are amazing! When they learn new things, we can see how they capture and remember them in their own unique ways. Hands-on learning experiences inspire creativity, and it is wonderful to see their ideas and understanding come out through their beautiful drawings and artwork.

Wondering, exploring, and being curious helped the children create these beautiful butterfly crafts in their own creative ways. 🥰

Playfulness Through Outdoor Learning!

This learning activity was extended with loose parts and open ended art materials to encourage children’s creativity and imagination.I provided different materials and gave children the freedom to explore and create their own butterflies in their own unique ways. It was amazing to see how they used their thinking skills to design colorful butterflies and share their own ideas. This activity showed how children’s creativity, confidence, and imagination come out naturally when they are given freedom to explore and express themselves through play and art.

Nature has amazing things happening all around us. Children’s curiosity created many open ended questions while exploring the butterfly life cycle. Through observing, touching, and discussing, they learned about nature in a meaningful and hands on way.

They explored the butterfly life cycle through a hands on invitation to play.And also learned about the stages from egg to caterpillar, cocoon, and butterfly using natural materials, books, and loose parts.All of them enjoyed observing, creating, and sharing their ideas while exploring nature and science together.

It’s not even just one day of their hard work.
Throughout the whole week, their dedication showed the true meaning of how much they love their moms.
Happy Mother’s Day! 💐

Learning about little responsibilities by planting their own strawberries and taking care of them. 🍓
It’s so beautiful to see how excited they are. Today, they reminded me that we needed to water our strawberries. Through this experience, they are learning responsibility, caring, and patience while watching their plants grow.

Spring is starting with caring and being patient.
We plant our little seeds and wait to see them wake up and grow.
Children learn that growth takes time.
With love, care, and patience, small seeds become beautiful plants.
