🌟 NOTHING WITHOUT JOY 🌟

As we gather for Spring to the Commons this Saturday, we are especially honored to also host something truly meaningful happening within our space…

The Bradley Street Playschool Art Show & Spring Fundraiser — a beautiful celebration of childhood, creativity, and joy.

Childhood is full of wonder — found in nature, in imagination, in favorite objects, and in the way children see the world. This exhibit is a visual representation of that joy, thoughtfully created and shared by the students and families of Bradley Street Playschool.

✨ And the best part? Joy grows when it’s shared.

We are so grateful to support this incredible school — its teachers, its families, and the intentional, life-giving work they are doing in our community. Their presence is a gift to Abingdon, and we hope you’ll take time to step in, experience the exhibit, and support their fundraiser.

🗓 Saturday, April 25

Come for the full day, stay for the joy — and help us celebrate the beauty of childhood together. 💛

🌟🌟NOTHING WITHOUT JOY🌟🌟

Childhood is full of all kinds of joy- the experiences we have in nature and our community, our favorite toys and comfort objects, the way we see ourselves and our world.

Sharing our joy compounds it! We are so thrilled to share a visual representation of childhood joy with everyone in Abingdon!!

Please join us for our Art Show and Spring Fundraiser on Saturday, April 25 from 3 to 6PM at Abingdon Commons.

We hope that you can make it and can’t wait to share our JOY with you!!

Making real-life connections fosters so much learning in early childhood!

Mirroring out of school experiences in the classroom helps build social skills, critical thinking, and is just plain fun!

We are LOVING having our very own outpost of The Pakalachian Food Truck right now!!

The children are “doing all that great cooking” of their favorite dishes, practicing their ordering skills, and delivering lots of to-go orders. We’re still working on our limeade recipe though! 😂💙

What a wonderful community we are a part of!!!

These children were strong, capable, and became the best teachers!! loves all of our sweet kiddos every day! Bradley Street Playschool has the most wonderful staff around!

Winter Holiday traditions are always such a joyful celebration of community! This year, we are learning about Hanukkah, Yule, and Christmas and the ways in which communities of people celebrate in similar ways as well as traditions that are unique to each holiday.

Today, we spent time together creating wreaths of evergreens! Evergreens often represent life through the cold winter and rebirth. They bring warmth into our spaces and remind us that after the winter, spring is coming!

The children enjoyed working together to create beautiful representations of holiday magic!!

We are thrilled to announce our new community cookbook and are so excited to offer this collection of family recipes to our community. This cookbook has come out of our fall projects focused on gratitude, thankfulness, and family. All proceeds will go to Feeding Southwest Virginia. Our students and families have worked so hard to contribute and we hope you would like to have a little of The Bradley Street Playschool in your kitchen as well!
