The Children's Hour Academy

Chasing away today's rainy day blues with these bright smiles from last week's popsicle party with Ms. Sally Jo and Ms. Shawna’s friends! 🍦☀️

Big smiles and even bigger discoveries! ✨ Our Pre-K friends have been having the best time learning, playing, and exploring together with Ms. Hilde. Everything is more fun when we’re learning side-by-side with our favorite buddies! 💕

🐾 Wild Adventures & Big Moves in Ms. Cindy’s Class! 🏃‍♂️🌳

Our early toddlers have been having a blast learning all about animals and getting their bodies moving! From roaring like lions in the classroom to running and playing in the gym and outside, these little explorers are learning best through active play. 🦁✨

Check out some highlights from last week’s busy, fun-filled week! 👇📸

Nature provides an excellent curriculum 🌼✨

Ms. Bailey’s students studied flowers from multiple angles—practicing non-standard measurements and early math concepts, engaging in sensory exploration, and taking their learning outdoors in the fresh air. Incorporating real-world observation makes early learning incredibly impactful. 🌸🌹✏️📓

Coming off a long weekend honoring Memorial Day 🇺🇸, we know getting back into the everyday routine can be a little slow. We’re here to help you start your day off with a smile by sharing a few adorable ones from last week in Ms. Colleen and Ms. Kelsey’s infant class. 😄 It is always a joy to see these smiling faces feeling so safe, happy, and loved here at school ❤️

Nature class is in session! 🔍✨
Ms. Laura’s friends got up close and personal with a dragonfly, turning curiosity into real-world learning. From practicing scientific observation and inquiry to exploring the natural world, it’s amazing to see them discover so much just by looking a little closer. 🦋🌱

Mark your calendars!
On Thursday, May 21, we're hosting a Shake Shack fundraiser at Bridgeport Village to support the Children's Hour Academy Foundation — and this one comes with a built-in family night out.

Shake Shack will donate a portion of proceeds back to CHA, and with the weather warming up, Bridgeport Village is the perfect spot to grab dinner, let the kids run around the open-air shops, and meet up with other CHA families.

📅 When: Thursday, May 21
📍 Where: Shake Shack at Bridgeport Village (7439 SW Bridgeport Rd, Tigard)

🍔 Why it's fun: Outdoor patio, fresh air, milkshakes, and a chance to hang out with your CHA crew — just mention Donation Day when ordering in person or use promo code DONATE if online or at their mobile kiosk.

Thank you for supporting our students, teachers, and school community!
