🚜🌻 Red Wagon Recap: A Week of Big Adventures for Little Hands! 🌻🚜
Grab your boots and your recycling bin, because this week our Red Wagon peeps were busy little learners! 🐴♻️
Over at “Red Wagon Ranch’, our Red Wagon 1 crew traded playgrounds for pastures! They saddled up to build the cutest popsicle stick tractors 🚜, decorated horseshoes with more sparkle than a rodeo queen ✨, and got their hands delightfully messy whipping up "dirt" cups — because let's be honest, dessert always tastes better with a side of pretend mud! 🍫🐛
Meanwhile, our Red Wagon 2 crew went on an eco-adventure with "How Plastic Is Made"! These little earth-savers turned recycled plastic into gorgeous blooming flowers 🌸, got their sweet tooth on with fudge made right in a bag 🍬, and took a field trip to the Upcycle Reuse Center — where trash became treasure in the hands of our tiniest creators! Talk about turning "reduce, reuse, recycle" into "roundup, remix, and radiate cuteness"! ♻️💛
From ranch hands to eco-champions, this week proved our Red Wagons can do it all — with dirt under their nails and glitter in their hearts! 🤠🌎✨
Enjoy watching all the giggles, creativity, and adorable chaos! 👉

What a WEEK it's been, Red Wagon crew! 🎉
Our Steam Explorers in Red Wagon 1 turned into total kitchen scientists this week — whipping up homemade ice cream and bread from scratch (yum!), and making things fizz, bubble, and change colors with some seriously cool rainbow reactions! 🌈🍦🍞 We even hit the road for a field trip to the National Children's Museum to keep the discoveries going.
Meanwhile, over in Red Wagon 2, we got fluffy with our “All About Cotton” theme! ☁️ We crafted floating clouds out of cotton, built our own mini cotton gins to see how cotton really gets made, and turned cotton balls into paintbrushes for some gorgeous cherry blossom masterpieces. 🌸 Then we took a step back in time with a field trip to George Mason's Gunston Hall, touring his historic home and garden like little history buffs!
From bubbling reactions to blooming cherry blossoms, it was a week packed with hands-on fun, big discoveries, and even bigger smiles. 😄 Can't wait to see what's next!

What a fun field trip! We learned how coffee grows, how it is picked, roasted and brewed!

Thank you for hosting us!
