Helping children learn is a super exciting and fulfilling process! Here are some of the ways we teach.
Butterfly Life Cycle

From caterpillars, to chrysalises, then to butterflies 🦋 We LOVED watching the Butterfly Life Cycle happen right before our eyes! Setting them free and saying bye was bittersweet and definitely entertaining 😂.
Puffy Paint Sight Words

The concentration was out of this world for all of our kids using the paint. Simple, homemade recipes make the kids even more excited to use them 😃 We love to see their brains growing while having fun!
Colorful Lava Lamps

We put on our scientist hats and made some LAVA LAMPS 🧪 Our kids get so excited when it’s science experiment day! We love exploring with them and seeing their reactions is always priceless 🙈 SCIENCE RULES!
