Little Bunnies Learning Center

This week we said goodbye to the month of May. Our main focus in May was on farm animals. Bunnies seem to enjoy the activities and the time they spend together.
Our main focus in June will be on insects. 🐛🐞 🐜🕷️

A trip to Maplewood Farm
Since our main focus in May was on farm animals, today we took our curious bunnies for a trip to the Maplewood farm.
Like always our bunnies were very excited and seemed to enjoy their trip, the time with the friendly animals and their friends outside the daycare.
A big thank you to our lovely staff and our beautiful families that helped the day go smoothly that our bunnies can have a fun trip.
Love you all and have a relaxing weekend!🙏🌹

Many adults think praise is always helpful. It is not.

When children only hear “good job” or “you are so smart”, they can start to rely on approval instead of learning how to cope, try again, and improve. Over time, this can make them give up more easily, avoid challenges, or feel pressure to always be “the best”.

What children actually need is to feel seen. Not judged. Not labelled.

They need adults to notice effort, small progress, and the behaviours they can repeat. That is what builds real confidence and resilience - not empty praise.

This is a small shift, but it changes how children see themselves for life.

WHY MUSIC IS NEEDED FOR BRAIN DEVELOPMENT & LEARNING

"Not only is music a success oriented and engaging means of addressing these skill areas [speech/language, fine motor, gross motor, cognition and social skills], music drives neuroplasticity by pairing non-musical skills with music. This engages multiple systems of the brain in synchrony and fosters communication between both hemispheres."

This week we said goodbye to the month of April and welcomed the second month of spring, May👋 👋
Below are some of the activities that kept our bunnies curious, engaged.❤️

Happy Birthday to our special planet — our Mother Earth! 🌎
This week, and especially today, we celebrated our beautiful planet’s special day by singing related songs, reading books, planting flowers, collecting garbage, and soaking peas with our bunnies.
Our bunnies will be taking care of the peas, and we hope to see the seedlings very soon!🌎🌳🌱🌳🌎

Happy Easter everyone!! 🐰🐥🐇🐣🐥🐤
Enjoy the pictures and the remaining of your long weekend.
