Founded by Patricia Broadway and Ashlee Willcox. Our center is designed to offer children ages 2 years to 5 years a safe, nurturing, play-based learning environment grounded in Christian values. We aim to support the spiritual, social, emotional, cognitive, and physical development of each child while building strong partnerships with families and the community.

If you see paint on their hands, glue in their hair, and glitter everywhere… just know learning is happening! ✨🎨

Art helps children:
🖍 Express big feelings
✂ Strengthen tiny muscles
🌈 Explore creativity
💬 Build language skills
🧠 Grow critical thinking

In early childhood, the process matters more than the product — and every masterpiece tells a story.

At Grace and Giggles, we celebrate creativity because it’s how little minds grow big dreams. We believe every child is wonderfully made and gifted with creativity. 🌿

Grace and Giggles Family & Friends 💛

Before we purchase additional Pre-K nap mats, we wanted to check with our sweet community first! If anyone has gently used preschool sleeping mats laying around that you are no longer using, we would be so grateful for the donation.

We love reusing and blessing little ones with items that still have life left in them! Please message us if you’d like to donate. Thank you for always supporting our growing center!

“‘Simplify, slow down, be kind…’ — words from ✨ Eric Carle ✨ that we truly believe in at Grace and Giggles.

In a world that moves fast, we choose to slow down, nurture little hearts, and fill our days with creativity, kindness, and wonder. 🎨🎶🌅

Because childhood should be full of art, joy, and gentle moments that point back to God’s goodness. 💛

✨ Why Sensory Learning Matters in Early Childhood ✨

At Grace and Giggles, we believe little hands were made to explore! 🖐️💛

Sensory learning—through touch, sight, sound, smell, and movement—is how young children make sense of the world around them. When children scoop, pour, squish, build, listen, and explore, their brains are forming powerful connections that support:

🌿 Language development
🧠 Brain growth
✍️ Early writing skills
🔢 Early math understanding
💛 Emotional regulation
🤝 Social skills

Sensory experiences aren’t “just play” — they are the foundation for learning. Every time a child feels sand between their fingers, listens to music, or explores textures in art, they are building pathways that prepare them for reading, problem-solving, and lifelong success.

As Scripture reminds us:

📖 “O taste and see that the Lord is good.” — Psalm 34:8 (KJV)

God designed children to experience His world with their senses. When we allow them to explore, create, and discover, we are nurturing the way He created them to learn. 🌈✨

At Grace and Giggles, we intentionally provide hands-on, meaningful experiences that help children grow academically, socially, emotionally, and spiritually.

Because when children learn through their senses… they learn best. 💛

✨ Why Physical Movement Matters in Early Childhood ✨

At Grace and Giggles, we don’t just encourage movement — we prioritize it. 💛

Little bodies were made to move! 🏃‍♀️💛

When children run, jump, climb, and play, they’re not just having fun — they’re building strong muscles, better focus, confidence, coordination, and social skills.

Movement fuels brain development and helps children learn more effectively. That’s why active play is part of our daily routine at Grace and Giggles Early Learning Center.

Healthy bodies. Strong minds. Happy hearts. 🦁🐑
