Thanks to everyone who came out for May the 4th and made it such a fun and special occasion!!!!!

Next up is Preschool Summer Build and Play Weeks starting the Tuesday after Memorial Day. We still have a little space left and a great team of teachers who will be on board for a great four weeks of independent stations, build time, crafts, outdoor large motor and tons of goofy fun! Details for this program are listed below.

So we really have to try to remember that the website is here, lol!
Since we last checked in to write up the next things happening, we had a MLK JR Build Day, some February Break build days, we are currently doing a three-week mini Spring Fling Build Week, and our summer build weeks are already full.

We still have space in our Preschool Summer 2024 Build Weeks which will start after Memorial Day and end on June 21st. These four weeks are for children moving up from a fours preschool program or entering kindergarten in the fall of 2024. To qualify, your child must be able to function well independently at multiple free choice stations. These weeks are ideal for kiddos who love brick-based toys, but also for those who don't -there are many options throughout the morning. See the flyer below for more details.

Happy Almost New Year to anyone new (or that we already know!) checking out the website!
