FIRST SUMMER SESSION

Welcome to our 2023 Fun in the Sun at PCS. We are happy to see such amazing little campers, full of energy and ready to see new adventures.

Golf ball painting and our sensory table ocean discovery was fun and messy.

It’s a,amazing how they all can seat together in a group and enjoy a delicious snack.

These kids loved the mist fall on their head, chase bubbles and explore the wet sand.

Here they all are enjoying some blue SNOW CONES.

The sand has been wet and perfect for making fun castles or molds of some kind. The kids love it,

CHAPEL WITH MR. TIM.” This is how God showed his love among us: He sent his one and only Son into the world that we might live,through him.” 1John 4:9

“WATER PLAY,” This summer it has not been much of a summer. JUNE GLOOM, Hahahaha! We are still wearing jackets and find it too cold for lots of water play.

Bikes are the favorite for these campers.

Congratulations to Our Preschoolers!

We are so blessed and happy to celebrate our kiddos at our Preschool Promotion! May God continue to bless these wonderful children on the next step in their journey! We are so blessed to have had this year to watch them grow and thrive! Thank you to everyone who came out to watch them perform their hearts out and celebrate with us! ❣️

Preschool Picnic 2023

The End of the Year – Preschool Family Picnic was a hit! Yummy food, water play, fun activities, and fellowship! It was so wonderful seeing all the families enjoying some fun in the sun!

Snail’s Pace Race on the Patio

This past month our friends played a life-size version of the children’s board game, Snail’s Pace Race on the Patio with Ms. Kristen.

Why are “games” and “play” such a vital part of early childhood education? Nothing answers that question better than seeing the range of skills being developed in such fun and practical ways as this.

While we play we are developing social emotional skills–engaging in cooperative play, delegating roles, taking turns, regulating our own emotions, developing self-confidence and laying the groundwork for character development and sportsmanship. This fun and engaging game also increases our attention span as we pay attention to each role of the color cube. One-to-one correspondence is one of the most challenging early math foundations and this is a way to reinforce the concept visually and pragmatically.
