When your teacher stops by your house to pick up the small gifts you made for Supa and Camillo, you know you’re part of the most special preschool and Kindergarten community. The TPK team leaves on Sunday for their mission trip to Columbia. We pray for safe travels, an impactful visit, and that Jesus moves hearts and minds towards Him during this visit.

Our week 1 summer campers made passports and traveled through God’s beautiful world last week. They learned so much about other cultures and traditions with a total hands on experience. Let’s hear it for our teachers & staff who did the most amazing job creating an incredible cultural scene that truly inspired imaginations to come alive.

Working on our fine motor skills by creating coral reefs! 🪸🐠 These small movements come so naturally to most people that we usually don’t think about them. But fine motor skills are complex. They involve a coordinated effort between the brain and muscles. They’re built on the gross motor skills that let us make bigger movements, like running or jumping.

How amazing are these photos from the 3’s class and their Oceans Unit?! They used the theme to review their five senses, talk about keeping our beaches and oceans clean, did an experiment about water density with salt water, sorted shells by size and used magnifying glasses to see similarities and differences between shells. They also made a jellyfish craft! Talk about making a splash! 🐬

They’re building muscles in their fingers and hands and don’t even know it! Learning to cut using scissors develops your child’s fine motor skills and coordination. Because they are developing muscles they haven’t used in this way before, it requires lots and lots of practice.

Yesterday the Upper Room was transformed into a race car lover's dream for the annual Kindergarten Dad's Car Race. There were stations to measure your car, paint a picture of a race car with marbles, a make your own award station and, of course, the station to race your car that you built at home with dad. There was also a place where dads and their child could build a bridge over water with marshmallows and toothpicks and a place to learn about friction. From start to finish, this event was a real winner! A huge thank you to our Kindergarten teachers for putting their hearts into this activity that these children and their dads will surely never forget. 🏎️🏁

Last week our lesson in Chapel was let the children come to me from Mark 10. He said to them, “Let the little children come to me, and do not hinder them, for the kingdom of God belongs to such as these. Truly I tell you, anyone who will not receive the kingdom of God like a little child will never enter it.” And he took the children in his arms, placed his hands on them and blessed them.
