Countdown to spring has begun for all of us at the preschool. Baseball, birds, rainbows, rain…we are ready for springtime. However, we have stayed busy and learned a lot this winter.
Our Explorers learned all about hibernation and bears, explored the five senses with hands-on experiments, set up lemonade stands to practice recognizing the different coins, and we read different stories on how to be super friends. Our Climbers celebrated our wonderful dads with “Donuts for Dad” this winter. Thanks to Gurnee Donuts for donating five dozen donut holes to this event. Please be sure to support our generous sponsor. Our Climbers also learned different ways to be a healthy kid.
Our
Wednesday Lunch Bunch program has been a success. In January the students participated in different STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Mathematics) building activities. Our February Wednesdays were filled with cooking. We are now budding artists learning about Wassily Kandinsky, Monet, and Da Vinci and recreating some of their famous paintings. The children have adjusted well to a longer school day and will be ready for Kindergarten.
Registration is now open for the 2020-2021 school year. We would love to have new families enroll in our Explorers or Climbers classes. Our Explorers class will meet on Monday, Wednesday, and Friday from 9:00-1:00 starting in the fall. Our Climbers class will meet Tuesday and Thursday from 9:00-11:30. Feel free to reach out to us at the preschool or check us
out on the website. We would be happy to answer any questions you have about our programs.
Our next Open House is Thursday, March 5th from 5:30-7:00.
