“I have a beautiful view!” Said by one of the children from their spot up in the tree. 💚 Climbing trees is not just play: it’s full-body training for both the body and brain. It builds upper-body, core, and grip strength while improving balance, coordination, flexibility, and spatial awareness. Every climb challenges your body and brain to work together, requiring problem-solving, deep focus, and smart risk assessment to navigate each branch safely. Sometimes the best playground is growing outside! 🌳

- a fine motor activity
- self expression
- a color theory exercise
- a science experiment
- a creative outlet
- a collaboration opportunity

Just some of the many reasons why we love art projects like this one, where the children made their own paint out of chalk!

Sometimes after a busy and noisy morning, you just need some quiet time and a good book! Right in the middle of all the action! This is an example of a child listening to and understanding their needs, and then having the power to act on them, which is all a large focus of our child-led approach!

You guys, our First lesson in our revived garden!!! Ms. Krista has joined our team as our outdoor Classroom teacher!
Today the children learned the rules of the garden, about garden tools and planting flower seeds. They then drew what they dreamed their flower would look like. Thank you Ms. Krista.
