From our Co-op backyard to yours ☀️🫧
One of our favorite summer activities? Giant bubbles. Simple setup, lots of movement, and kids completely leading the play.
They’re “just playing,” but it’s really so much more. They’re experimenting, testing ideas, laughing through the “oops” moments, and basically running little science labs in the backyard. 🫧
Try it at home! Here’s the bubble mix we used:
• 6 cups water
• 1/2 cup cornstarch
• 1/2 cup dish detergent
• 1 tbsp baking powder
• 1 tbsp glycerin
A few tips: Dissolve cornstarch in water first, then gently mix everything together. Good dish soap (like Dawn) makes a big difference, and distilled water makes even better bubbles than tap.
Pour it into a kiddie pool, grab some large rings, hula hoops, or DIY pool noodles for bubble wands, and let the kids take it from there. 🤗
Kids' Co-Op Preschool
We offer full and half day preschool in Las Vegas, grounded in the concepts of play-based curriculum, and parent participation and ownership.
{Cooperative Philosophy and Values}
{We believe} that children need to Learn to Play and Play to Learn. Play meets the needs of the whole child. Child guided learning experiences, individualized learning, and developmentally appropriate learning are key to learning through play. Along with teaching specific academic skills, a play-based approach helps children “learn how to learn”. Through explor
A little reminder for summer ☀️
Some of the best learning happens in everyday moments through play, connection, curiosity, and time together.
This summer, keep learning going by:
☀️ Leaving space for unscheduled family time — these are the times children are more likely to wonder about the world and to ask questions
☀️ Sharing family breakfasts or dinners together
☀️ Creating a simple summer bucket list with your child
☀️ Rotating toys and bringing out “new” play bins later in the season
☀️ When your child says “I’m bored…” pausing for 5 minutes of connection first. ❤️ A hug, a cuddle, a silly game, or undivided attention can refill their “love tank” and often restart their imagination.
☀️ Trying playful challenges like:
What kind of food do dinosaurs need in the sandbox? Can you make the longest domino line ever? How many things can you pick up with your toes?
☀️ Making simple sensory bins (check link in bio for ideas!)
Wishing everyone a summer full of wonder, laughter, connection, and learning through play. 🌼

BRB crying over how these babies are suddenly moving up. 🥹✨
What a year of messy paint, muddy adventures, bike races, saving the world in the Big Yard, snack time chats, tiny friendships, and so much growing up together.
So proud of our little graduates + the village that got them here. 🫶🎓
Where do we even begin? 🥺
If you’ve walked through our doors anytime in the past 26 years, Vicky has been there — welcoming families, answering questions, comforting parents and little ones, organizing and fixing all the things, and keeping the heart of our school beating every single day.
Vicky, thank you for the care, patience, laughter, and love you’ve poured into this community for over two decades. Your impact reaches far beyond these walls, and the Co-op won’t be the same without you. 💛
Wishing you a retirement filled with joy, relaxation, adventure, and all the happiness you deserve. 💐
Volunteer Appreciation Day hits different in a Co-op. 💛 Our families show up in the classroom, jump into all kinds of play, read stories, clean up everyday messes, set up snacks, comfort big feelings, and make the magic happen every day. The love and care you pour into this little community means so much to our kids and to each other.
We’re really lucky to do this alongside you. 🫶✨
Last week we had our Earth Day 🌎 celebration, and it was such a great day. 💚
The kids were fully in it, finding ladybugs and worms, meeting a few animals (like Mrs. Toth’s ball python!), making bird feeders, painting marble earth and upcycled art, and even practicing sorting and recycling. 🐞🐛🎨♻️
Just one of those days where everything felt simple and meaningful: outside, hands busy, everyone curious about the world around them. 🌱✨

Happy Earth Day! 🌎🌻
Our 4’s class explored sunflowers through art and science, first using real sunflowers as inspiration for still life drawings, then planting seeds of our own. Now, our hydroponic watering system is bringing tiny sprouts to life! 🌱💧
Want to try growing your own hydroponics at home? This simple upside-down bottle setup makes it easy!
1️⃣ Cut a plastic bottle in half
2️⃣ Flip the top upside down into the base
3️⃣ Thread a cotton rope/strips or shoelace through the cap as a wick
4️⃣ Fill the bottom with water
5️⃣ Add soil and seeds to the top section
6️⃣ Watch your plants grow as the wick keeps them hydrated! 🌿

Wrapping up Reading Month with our Fairytale Feast 👑🫖✨
The teachers acted out Jack and the Beanstalk (10/10 performance!), followed by a little tea party with delicious sandwiches, fruit, and cookies.
Such a sweet way to celebrate everything we’ve been reading. 📚💛

So much more than a farmers market 💚 This past weekend, our Co-op kiddos helped run our booth alongside their parents from start to finish. From greeting customers, counting money, misting vegetables, and inviting visitors to explore our garden play and prize giveaways, these little learners got a hands-on lesson in confidence, responsibility, and community. 🌽🍓
Moments like these remind us that when children are given real opportunities to contribute, they rise to the occasion. So proud of our junior farmers and the families who make this Co-op so special. 🌱✨
