🍪🍦 Sweet summer memories are being made at Pollywogs! ☀️

Our school-age crew had so much fun baking fresh cookies and turning them into delicious homemade ice cream sandwiches! From measuring and mixing to assembling their own tasty treats, the children enjoyed every step of the process.

Activities like these are about so much more than dessert. They help build confidence, encourage teamwork, practice following directions, and create wonderful memories with friends.

There’s nothing better than seeing proud smiles, sticky fingers, and happy hearts on a summer afternoon. ❤️

Yesterday we took a break from the busy days of caring for children and spent time celebrating an incredible team. ❤️

We swam, laughed, played games, ate great food, sang karaoke, and every single staff member went home with a prize, including our grand prize winner, who is headed to Orlando, Florida! ✈️🌴

I truly believe the people who spend their days loving and caring for our children deserve to be celebrated. I wish I could do even more because they have earned it. Thank you for everything you do, day in and day out. Pollywogs is special because of each and every one of you. 💚

I hope everyone had an amazing time, we certainly enjoyed spoiling you for the day!

Ashley is truly an incredible teacher. Her patience, kindness, dedication, and genuine love for children shine through every single day. She creates meaningful connections with the children and families she works with and brings so much positivity, compassion, and professionalism to our center.

We are beyond grateful to have Ashley as part of our Pollywogs family. She is a tremendous asset to our team, and her commitment to early childhood education is inspiring.
