Tierra Encantada - Ashton Heights

A wonderful time celebrating our amazing children and families at the Spring Festival! 🌸💜 Families had the opportunity to watch their little ones perform songs and dances in Spanish, proudly showcasing all they have been learning in the classroom. Thank you to everyone who joined us and made the event so special!

Congratulations to Mrs. Xiomarys on being named Director of the Month at Tierra Encantada and for receiving our Outstanding Care Award! Your strong leadership, dedication, and commitment to excellence create a nurturing and well-run environment for both staff and families. You lead with care, support your team, and ensure every child receives the highest quality of care and education. Your passion and guidance make a lasting impact on our entire Tierra Encantada community. We are truly grateful for all that you do. 💜👏

Play, laughter, and learning - all in more than one language 💬

Bilingual children gain more than just vocabulary. They build stronger cognitive skills, better problem-solving abilities, and deeper cultural connections. Plus, switching between languages boosts focus and flexibility in thinking.

When kids learn through joy and connection, language becomes a bridge to the world 🌎❤️

National Superhero Day at Tierra Encantada! 🦸‍♂️🦸‍♀️

Today our little heroes showed up in style, dressed as their favorite superheroes and ready to save the day! From capes to masks, our classrooms were filled with imagination, confidence, and lots of smiles. 💥

We love celebrating days like this because they encourage creativity, self-expression, and remind our children that being a hero isn’t just about superpowers—it’s about kindness, helping others, and being brave every day. 💜

We love teaching little ones how important the Earth - la tierra - is, and how we can help protect it.

Fun fact: While we typically translate “Tierra Encantada” as “Enchanted Land,” the Spanish word tierra can also mean Earth. 🌎

Happy Earth Day! 💚
