Learn and Love Preschool

I love teaching! As challenging as it can be (mainly the education system), being with these kiddos brings me so much joy and I love how much my heart glows and grows with them. ❤️

What a fantastic idea! 🤩

🌈✨ Use blackboard paint to transform log slices into reusable chalk boards. It’s a simple way to turn natural materials into an inviting mark-making opportunity. 🌿🖤

💦 Including little pots of water give the children the opportunity to trace over their marks with water to remove them, exploring causing effect. ✨

💧 The water will erase the chalk and once dry their canvases are ready to use again. 🥰🌿

Give them a go!

“Play is the highest expression of human development in childhood, for it alone is the free expression of what is in a child’s soul.” - Friedrich Froebel

We believe that play is not a break from learning — it is learning. Froebel understood that when children play, they reveal their curiosity, creativity, problem-solving skills, and developing sense of self. Play allows children to explore the world safely, confidently, and authentically.

We see each child as capable, curious, and full of potential. Our role as educators is to guide, observe, support, and gently challenge — allowing learning to unfold naturally through meaningful play.

We don’t rush childhood. We protect it, nurture it, and celebrate it — because when children are free to play, they are free to grow.

What a beautiful creative project. 🌺
