Flance Early Learning Center

Is it really time already to save the date? Yes! Flance's annual Food, Arts and Music Festival is Oct. 10th and we hope to see you there. Current and former Flance families and community friends are all welcome. Please join us!

P.S. We're currently seeking sponsorships for the festival (starting at $500) from businesses and individuals. New to this year, we're seeking five families (could be Flance alums or just friends) who'd like to sponsor. Our hope is that this will show our current Flance parents that families all across our city are rooting for them and care about their parenting journey. If you might be interested in sponsoring or know someone who would like more details, please reach out to Ms. Jami, our Director of Development, at [email protected].

Thank you!

Wednesdays in the garden with Harvest STL:

This week students are turning potatoes they've helped harvest from our garden into healthier french fries via the air fryer. They are practicing food prep and safety and showing some fierce chopping skills. :)

Overheard:

Student: "These are square." *said with peak skepticism before taking a bite.*
Educator: "Does the shape matter?"
Student: "Not if they taste ok." *as skepticism melts into delight* "Oh, they taste good!"
