🌱 Something NEW is coming to Mama Bear Childcare’s Preschool Program! 🥕🍓

We’re excited to introduce Small Bites Adventure Club — a hands-on food and nutrition program designed to help children explore new foods in a fun, positive way!

Through this program, our preschool kiddos will have opportunities to:
🥦 Explore new fruits & vegetables
👩‍🍳 Help prepare simple, kid-friendly recipes
🍎 Taste and experience new foods with no pressure
🖐️ Build fine motor skills through hands-on cooking
📚 Incorporate math, literacy, science & sensory learning
💚 Build healthy relationships with food from an early age

At Mama Bear, we believe some of the best learning happens through real-life experiences, and sometimes that means getting a little messy in the kitchen! 😊

We can’t wait to see our little chefs explore, create, taste, and learn through Small Bites Adventure Club! 🥕🍅🥬

🦋✨ Our Little Scientists Became Butterfly Experts! ✨🦋

Over the past few weeks, our preschoolers had the incredible opportunity to observe the complete butterfly life cycle right in their classroom! From tiny eggs, to hungry caterpillars, to the amazing chrysalis, and finally beautiful butterflies, they watched each stage unfold before their eyes.

This hands on experience helped our children develop observation skills, patience, curiosity, and a deeper understanding of how living things grow and change. Learning comes to life when children can see it, touch it, and experience it firsthand!

To celebrate all they learned, each child received a Budding Entomologist Certificate for becoming a butterfly life cycle expert. 🏆🦋

We are so proud of our little learners and their excitement for science and discovery!
