As part of the Primrose Schools Mud Pies® program, students learn about agriculture as they plant, grow and harvest nutritional fruits and vegetables in the Primrose Patch.
Understanding where our food comes from is an important part of our health, history and culture. Did you know pumpkins are native to North America and were first cultivated by Indigenous People, along with corn, beans, cranberries and various other foods? Indigenous People in the Americas are to thank for many of the foods we grow and enjoy today.
Share an emoji of your little one's favorite fruit or vegetable and how they like to enjoy it! 🌽🫘 🍽️

The holiday season often comes with a change in routine, which can be challenging for young children — and for the parents dealing with tantrums, sibling squabbles and more. To make the most of your family time this holiday season, check out the tips below.
❤️ Model self-regulation for your child
By modeling self-regulation when you feel frustrated, like verbalizing your emotions, you can help your child build that same skill in themselves.
✅ Set and reinforce expectations
Children do best when they understand what they can and cannot do. Ensure you are clear with what is being asked of them and look for moments to praise their positive behavior.

Gratitude is one of the many positive character traits that children learn in Primrose classrooms. See how you can help foster gratitude in your little one right at home:
🎁 Teach Gratitude Through Gift-Giving: Putting a reasonable limit on gift-giving during birthdays and holidays can help your child better understand the value of each present they receive.
🤗 Demonstrate Gratitude: Model this important trait for your little one by showing appreciation for others, always saying “please” and “thank you” and having a positive attitude.
🗣️Provide Prompts: Gently remind your child to say "Please" and "Thank you" to build this important habit.
❤️ Create a gratitude ritual: Have each family member share one thing they’re grateful for every evening before dinner, write “I Care” cards together, or volunteer as a family.
