🎃❤️ A BIG thank you to the Pretsch family! ❤️🎃

The Pretsch family generously donated 45 pumpkins to our Dodgeville center, making sure every one of our children could pick out their very own pumpkin! They didn’t stop there—they went above and beyond and created the sweetest little pumpkin patch right on our playground for the kids to enjoy. 🥰

Monday, our little ones got to head out to the pumpkin patch, pick their very own pumpkin, and enjoy some fall fun! Watching their excitement as they searched for the perfect pumpkin was absolutely priceless. 🎃🍂

We are so incredibly thankful for families like the Pretsches who go out of their way to create special memories for our children. Your kindness means so much to all of us!❤️

Thank you, Pretsch family, for making Monday so special! 🎃🍂❤️

A huge thank you to the Prairie du Chien Fire Department for visiting our center! 🚒❤️

The children had an amazing time learning about fire safety, exploring the fire trucks, and getting a close-up look at the firefighters’ equipment. They loved walking through the truck, sitting in the passenger seat, and even getting the chance to ring the bell!

We are so grateful for the time you spent with our children and for all that you do to keep our community safe. Thank you for making this such a fun and memorable experience! 🔥🚒👨‍🚒

Today our preschoolers learned about fire safety through a fun, hands-on activity! 🚒🔥 Using spray bottles to “put out” pretend flames, they practiced fine-motor skills, hand-eye coordination, teamwork, and fire safety awareness. Learning through play helps children build important skills while having fun! ❤️

🚑❤️ A HUGE thank-you to Dodgeville EMS! ❤️🚑

What a wonderful way to wrap up our Community Helpers Week! This morning, Dodgeville EMS took time out of their busy day to visit ITBCC and give our little learners a firsthand look at the important work they do in our community.

The children had so much fun exploring the ambulance, learning about the equipment, and discovering how our EMTs help people when they need it most. These hands-on experiences create meaningful learning opportunities and help our children become more familiar and comfortable with the people who are always there to help.

We are so grateful for the time, patience, and kindness you shared with our children today. Thank you for being such an important part of our community and for helping us make this week so special!

Our community is stronger because of people like you! ❤️🚑
