Hello Sticky Friends! With Open House around the corner we wanted to give you a brief virtual tour of the classroom.

Art Room
Our Art Room is a hub of creativity and imagination. Stocked with a wide variety of art materials, children are encouraged to explore, experiment, and express themselves freely.

Big Room
Step into the Big Room—an inviting space designed for active play and imaginative exploration. Children can enjoy an indoor play kitchen, play-dough table, cozy loft and under-loft nook, as well as walls filled with engaging toys and activities. Giant building blocks, climbable structures, dress-up costumes, and music inspire creativity, collaboration, and endless pretend play.

Discovery Room
The Discovery Room is all about learning through play. With bins of games for matching, sorting, counting, and building, along with train and car tracks, children are encouraged to problem-solve, explore, and discover something new each day.

The Yard
Bunker Hill’s expansive yard is a true outdoor playground, offering endless opportunities for exploration and adventure. Children can get messy in the outdoor mud kitchen, create flowing rivers in the large sandbox and along our winding waterway, and mix imaginative potions and concoctions using natural materials, paint, glitter, and shaving cream. They can also garden, swing on the monkey bars, climb the treehouse, and put on performances in our amphitheater beneath beautiful oak trees—making outdoor play engaging, imaginative, and enriching.

The 93 Acre Woods
Our meadow invites children to explore nature through bug hunts, rainbow yarn trails, giant rope bubbles, and special features like the creek, F***y Slide Hill, Rainbow Bridge, and Timber Tunnel. It’s a place for movement, discovery, and outdoor adventure in a safe, supported environment.

Boo! Don’t worry — it’s just your favorite preschool teachers having a little Halloween fun! 👻💛
We love this time of year when the air is crisp, the pumpkins are bright, and our classrooms are full of laughter and creativity.
Thank you to all our families for helping us make learning feel magical — from spooky crafts to silly costumes, we’re making memories that will last long after the pumpkins fade!

Our 3-day class had the best fall field trip to Bob’s Pumpkin Farm in Half Moon Bay! 🍂🎃 The kids went on a scavenger hunt, met and fed the animals, tried their hand at fixing tractors, and picked the perfect pumpkins to take home. A day full of laughter, learning, and farmyard fun! 🧡🚜🐐
