Cooking develops many skills, including math and science, while encouraging healthy nutrition and fitness habits at home and in the classroom.
April 10: Work Together Wednesday
When children build together, they explore new concepts and develop their social and early literacy skills.

Children develop creativity, social, and fine motor skills with open-ended art projects that allow them to make choices and use their imaginations.

Engaging and celebrating families is at the heart of supporting our youngest learners. Family Friday recognizes that family members are a young child’s
first and most important teachers.
