🍂 We're Going on a Leaf Hunt! 🍁

Our little explorers took their learning outdoors to discover the wonders of fall!

As they searched for leaves, they had opportunities to observe the changing seasons, notice different colors and shapes, and explore the natural world around them. 🌿

Who knew something as simple as a leaf could inspire so much curiosity? 🧡

🎃 Pumpkin Exploration Time! 🍂

Our littlest learners are getting hands-on with fall!

From discovering the outside of a pumpkin to exploring the squishy, stringy surprises inside, our infants and toddlers are using their senses to investigate, explore, and learn!

These simple seasonal experiences help build curiosity, fine motor skills, and early language development—all through PLAY! 🧡

🌿☀️ Sunday Funday!

That look when you're taking in all the wonders of the world around you! 🤔💚

Sometimes learning looks like jumping, running, and laughing. Other times, it's a quiet moment of curiosity, observation, and discovery.

Every little moment is an opportunity to grow! 🌱

This week, we're hopping over to our Frogs classroom to celebrate Ms. Kirstin and Ms. Andrea! 🌟

These wonderful teachers help our Pre-K learners grow, explore, and discover something new every day!

On the lookout for letters! 🔎🔤
Our little learners are turning letter recognition into a playful hunt! Searching for familiar letters helps children notice their shapes and builds early literacy skills along the way. 💙

The thing about a Goddard preschooler is they’re going to be curious. Keep the questions coming 👏

Personally, we’d hire them as videographers 📹

Kindergarten readiness can show up in everyday moments, not just big milestones. A few signals to notice:

1. They’re building confidence to try things independently. Examples: walking into a room first, asking for help, or giving something new a try.

2. They’re starting to recognize the letters in their name, even if they’re not reading just yet.

3. They’re showing care and responsibility at home. This could include things like helping pack a bag, feeding a pet, putting away toys, or getting through part of their routine with a little more ease.

Every child grows at their own pace - and readiness looks different for every family. Their preschool teachers can be a great partner in noticing strengths, celebrating progress, and helping you think through what comes next.
