🏫✨ After weeks of deep cleaning, organizing, and planning, we are SO ready to welcome everyone back to school! We can’t wait to see all of our littles and their families again!! 💕

Before the new year kicks off, The team had lunch to celebrate everyone’s hard work and dedication to our little ones. 🥗🌸 Working with littles takes so much heart, patience, and energy. We appreciate everyone, especially Miss. Tati more than words can say.

We spent the afternoon dreaming up all our plans for the 2026-2027 school year, and we are beyond excited for what’s ahead! 🎉📚

Here’s to a wonderful school year! 🚌✏️🚸

💕 My heart was so full having my Kindergartner back after school today! These children truly feel like my own. I spend so much of my days loving and caring for them, so when they move on it’s always hard to say goodbye. But it’s so sweet to have them come back!! 🥰💕

✂️ Fine motor skills in action! ✂️

One of our littles practiced scissor skills today… and trimmed their shirt a bit in the process! 😄

We celebrate effort over “oops.” What has your little one accidentally snipped on? 👇

🚔🐾 Irvine Police Department Visit 🐶🚓

We are so grateful to the Irvine Police Department for visiting our little ones today. Especially Officer Mendoza, Christina Painter, and Jacks (their sweet 6 year old English Black Lab) for spending time with our children. Officer Painter read us a story about Jacks and his role in the community and Officer Mendoza showed us the only Cyber Beast Police Truck in the USA, up close and in person, plus a full truck show that had the littles jumping with excitement. 🚓✨

Community visits like this help our children build trust with the people who keep us safe, and give them real, hands on learning they will remember for years to come.

Gracias, Irvine PD, for making today unforgettable! 🫶

🧼🚗 Foamy Soap Carwash STEM Day! 🚗🧽

Our little scientists explored bubbles, suds, and cause and effect today with a hands on Foamy Soap Carwash!

🧠 What they learned:
✨ Cause and effect (turning the pedals made bubbles appear!)
🌈 Sensory exploration through colorful foam, textures, and sounds 🫧
🎨 Color recognition and mixing as foam swirled and blended
🧽 Fine motor skills scrubbing and steering their “cars”
⚙️ Early physics concepts like friction and motion

Tiny hands squished, squeezed, and painted with foamy soap in bright colors, engaging their senses while building STEM thinking skills and fun water play day! 🌡️🥵☀️

At Mrs. Cabrera’s Neighborhood, we believe learning through play is how children build real understanding, one bubble at a time! 🫧
