Happy Hearts Preschool and Play

We had messy play at daycare today and oh my, did we get messy! It was so fun!

We had such fun today jumping in muddy puddles! ☔️ 💦

Who else is loving spending time outside and observing the frondescence going on around us?!

Happy Easter!
The kiddos had fun last week making this little snack representing the empty tomb. Christ is risen! 🎉💕

We had lots of fun at our Happy Hearts Easter egg hunt and picnic tonight! 🐣

The kiddos enjoyed doing circle time and an Easter watercolor craft outside today! It was too pretty to be inside much!

We have one opening!

This gorgeous weather was too great to stay inside! We had a wonderful walk with our wagon and stroller and found some fun things to explore!

Need your Covid-19 Vaccine? Our little docs got ya covered! 😄

Inspired by a picture I saw online, we decided to make our own heart ice sculpture. We scoured the area for some pretty nature items to add to it, put them in water in our heart shaped bowl, and froze them.
Next week we look forward to hanging them up outside when the weather is really cold. ⛄️❄️

Here’s a fun and simple Valentines art idea we did today at Happy Hearts - celery heart stamping. When you cut the celery the result is a heart-like shape. We provided the kiddos different shades of red and pink paint and let them stamp away!
Simple, fun, great for small muscle control skills, and a tasty snack if you like celery as much as my granddaughter does! 😄 (No paint was eaten!)

Ending the year out with a little rainy day fun! We made a tent with twinkle lights (plastic bulbs of course!). ⛺️ 💕

We acted out the nativity story today. Adorable kids plus thrift store costumes (washed well!) and we got some cute pics! ❤️

We are excited to announce that we just put down a deposit on a lease on this house! Our new daycare will be called Mama Bear Daycare and Preschool!
More details to follow!

Another clue! 🔍 🔍🔍

Here’s a clue about our big news...😄

Exciting news is on the way! Stay posted, friends! 🎉🎉🎉💕

I love these precious kiddos! ❤️ We had so much fun at open gym at Metroplex Gymnastics today!

Kids are the best! I told these sweet girls we needed a picture since they are wearing matching shirts.
4 year old: “And our hair almost matches the same too!” ❤️❤️❤️

We took group pics the other day with our teacher shark shirts and the shark shirts we made with the kiddos. It’s always an adventure getting 13 children and 5 adults to look at a camera! 🤣 And we realized later that the “y” in family had fallen off the board at some point. 🤦‍♀️
We had some laughs anyway! Thanks to my sweet neighbor May for taking the pics! 💕

We had lots of fun today at our daycare Halloween party! 🎃 We decided to do some reverse trick-or-treating and went to some of our neighbor’s houses and gave THEM candy! I was incredibly impressed with how generous the kids were! There was not one complaint! Such precious kiddos we have!

One of the highlights of our week at Happy Hearts was our 3 and 4 year olds getting to go on a dinosaur hunt! Our creative Allen Parks and Recreation Dept. is putting on this neat event. 🦕 🦖
The kids loved looking for CeCe and finding her footprints. She is a “candivore” so we planted some “candy traps” for her (and of course we ate some too! 😄).
While on the hunt we enjoyed nature and saw a little snake.
Eventually the kids all found a dino egg. (One day Amazon shipping and a little planning ahead for the win!)
The next day they had fun breaking
open their eggs and finding the tiny dinos inside. One of our kiddos was quite disappointed it wasn’t a real dino but had fun nonetheless!

These 4 amazing ladies make me so proud to be part of our Happy Hearts team! They work so hard and love the children so well! 💕

We have been LOVING this gorgeous weather! We’ve had some
meals outside, done crafts in the yard, played in our Fall sensory bin, played with sticks and sand, and generally just enjoyed nature! 🌳 🍁

There is not too much that is as precious as little ones praying. 💕

“Jesus said, “Let the little children come to me, and do not hinder them, for the kingdom of heaven belongs to such as these.”
Matthew 19:14

I think messy play day was a success this week! It’s all summed up in this tiny face! 😂❤️

Be encouraged! And keep up the good work!

Just happened to catch this sweet moment this morning. 📚💕

This is a great little prayer helper for kiddos!

We have one spot open! 💕

We had fun with a shark theme yesterday at Happy Hearts. 🦈
We made yummy popsicles with gummy sharks in them, read ocean books, and had sharks and goldfish for a snack, and danced to the Baby Shark song (of course!). More shark fun to come next week!

Many of our current Happy Hearts parents and alumni parents are teachers and school administrators. From us here at Happy Hearts, you are amazing! Thank you for all you do for our kiddos! You made it through the first week!!!
And for all of those parents guiding your kiddos through remote learning, you are amazing too! 💕

In Texas in August water play 💦 and popsicles are a must!

Great way to talk to kiddos about healthy foods! ❤️ 🥦 🥕 🍏

Some great info on understanding why your children may be displaying some of these behaviors during this time.
