Rain or Shine, at Carpe Diem Allen we encourage outdoor play in gentle rain! 💧

Did you know?

-Allowing children to play outside in the rain promotes a healthy lifestyle as they are taught from a young age that participating in daily exercise shouldn’t be prevented by the weather.

-Children can develop physical skills faster in the rain. Due to slippier conditions, children need to work harder to maintain good balance, further improving their coordination and gross motor skills. Alongside maintaining a strong balance, children will need to use critical thinking skills while they manage risks and evaluate performing different activities. This can be as simple as choosing where to stand in wet conditions.

-While exploring the great outdoors during rainfall, children are given new experiences of water, after seeing water coming from taps and water fountains.

-Playing in the rain provides a fantastic sensory experience to children! With different sounds, sights, smells and touches, the rain can truly enhances children’s sensory experience.

-When children are let out to play in the rain, they begin to learn self-help and independent skills – thinking about what they need in order to go out during wet weather. From how they need to dress, such as putting on their coats and wellies to what they need when they are out in the rain, for example an umbrella, it’s a fantastic way to teach children to be a little bit more independent and take a little bit more responsibility on keeping themselves dry and warm outdoors.

-Children’s creativity and imaginations can be inspired as they jump in muddy puddles like their favourite cartoon characters and allow their minds to run wild. Is it a huge loch, where they might find a monster, or have they caused a massive tidal wave by jumping in?

Carpe’s Summer Carwash fundraiser was an absolute success!!!

A HUGE thank you to our Carpe families for coming out this morning and donating over $1000, the funds will be used to revamp our garden and our activity room. 💚💙🤍

Thank you Ms. Carli and Ms.Holly for hosting this event!

Congrats to our 2022 graduating PreK class!!!!! 💙💚🤍

The week of the young child!

The Week of the Young Child is a time to recognize that children's opportunities are our responsibilities, and to recommit ourselves to ensuring that each and every child experiences the type of early environment—at home, at child care, at school, and in the community—that will promote their early learning.
