We are so excited about garden plans and growing things! Come on warm weather, we need you! 🌻🌷☀️

I just love rearranging our space and keeping things engaging and fresh!

This is risky play! Balancing, stacking, creating, pushing the limits and experimenting with what works and what doesn't. This is how we learn to be confident in our abilities. These kiddos are capable! ❤

Playing with bubble foam this morning! Just toss 1/4 cup dish soap and a couple tablespoons of water into your stand mixer and turn to high speed until it fluffs up. Food coloring is optional! Like playing with a cloud 😍

Saving the kitties from the ice! Day 2 of doing this activity. Did you know...When children are constantly exposed to new stimuli every day, repeating experiences can lead to feeling more comfortable and relaxed, opening up possibilities for taking risks and engaging with materials in new ways!

Creating a little holiday magic in our cozy corner!🎄❤

Quiet days are Lego days. Building with the boys! 😁

Cars and pianos - a mesh of two interests in a creative and child-led way! 🚗 🎹

What a beautiful day for a picnic at the park! 🧡

Mmm pumpkin cream cheese swirl muffins! Smells so good! 🤤 hope the kids are as excited to eat these as I am!

🍂Leaves are falling! Enjoying this weather while we can. PD Fridays are a good day to extend outdoor play when the kiddos are asking for it. We spent over an hour outside!
