Rainy Day Fun 5/6 year old scholars enjoyed Slime Time, gathering ingredients and mixing up lots of gooey fun.
Scholars loved exploring textures, measuring, stirring, and watching their creations come together right before their eyes.
Sorry parents they are definitely coming home with it🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Today our scholars embraced our Week 4 Theme: BRAVE ME with an exciting Kickball Championship featuring our 3/4-year-old and 7/8-year-old age groups.
It wasn't just about winning—it was about building relationships, encouraging one another, showing teamwork, and having the courage to try something new. Every scholar demonstrated what it means to be BRAVE by cheering on their teammates, playing with confidence, and having fun together.
At FCMI Summer Enrichment, we continue to create opportunities where our youth learn, grow, and build character—one brave moment at a time!
🗣Shout Out to the best Pre-School staff!!!!

What a great day cooking with Ms. Mashama at Summer Enrichment! 🇮🇹
Today our scholars took a delicious trip to Italy through food and music!
Our young chefs prepared🍝 Spaghetti & Penne Pasta
🍪 Chocolate Chip Cookies
🧁 Cupcakes
As they cooked they enjoyed the sounds of traditional Italian music, making this a fun cultural experience while learning valuable life skills such as teamwork, following directions, kitchen safety, and creativity.
At Frank Chapman Memorial Institute/HHH Summer Enrichment, we believe learning happens in every setting—even in the kitchen!
🎯oh plus delicious garlic bread!
