Our Apple Pumpkin Days were so much fun!

On Day 1, the children made apple donuts using round apple slices with delicious toppings. They also enjoyed apple stamping with red, green, and yellow paints. Earlier this week, the children participated in a blindfolded taste test of red and green apples, shared their favorites, and we created an Apple Tasting Graph. We also carved a pumpkin and explored its seeds and gooey insides!

A special thank-you to our parent volunteers, Ms. Alice (Luna’s mom) and Ms. Kelli (Dylan’s mom), for helping with our activities and reading Ten Apples Up on Top by Dr. Seuss and The Pumpkin Patch Parable by Liz Curtis Higgs.

On Day 2, we made delicious pumpkin waffles with yummy toppings. We explored pumpkins, gourds, and squash through still-life paintings and tissue paper pumpkin crafts, and we carved another pumpkin and created a pumpkin volcano to observe a chemical reaction!

Our wonderful parent volunteers, Ms. Julie (Eve’s mom) and Ms. Anna (Timmy’s mom), helped with our activities and read The Pumpkin Patch Parable by Liz Curtis Higgs and The Leaf Thief by Alice Hemming to the children.

Through our apple and pumpkin activities, the children explored their senses, practiced their fine motor skills, expressed their creativity, explored colors, shapes, and textures through art, observed a chemical reaction with our pumpkin volcano, and developed listening and comprehension skills through stories.

A heartfelt thank-you to all our families who signed up to donate ingredients for our food activities and generously donated pumpkins and gourds of all shapes and sizes! We truly appreciate your support in making our Apple Pumpkin Days special. The children had so much fun!

August was a wonderful month of new beginnings, friendships, and joyful learning in Room 1! Our children settled into their new classroom routines, explored their environment, and enjoyed getting to know their teachers and friends. From art and hands-on activities to outdoor play, music & movement, Bible lessons, and small groups, every day brought opportunities to learn, play, discover, and grow together. We are so thankful for a blessed start to the new school year and look forward to all that God has in store for our Room 1 family!

Room 2 had a blast participating in our school’s Annual Fun Run! Team Rockets ran, walked, skipped, and danced around the track with music pumping and spectators cheering them on. We had so much fun!

We are so grateful to God for our supportive parents and teachers who came out to cheer us on and generously volunteered their time and energy. Your encouragement and support mean so much to us. Thank you for being such a blessing to our school community!

Our Room 2 friends had so much fun playing on the snow! We played, laughed, and made special memories together.

Thank you to our wonderful parent volunteers for all your help, and thank you to our school for such a fun snow day. We are so grateful!

Our Room 2 families had a wonderful time on our field trip to Underwood Family Farms. We were thankful for the beautiful weather and smooth day as our children arrived excited and ready to explore and learn! We enjoyed the Vegetable Show, where we learned about how produce grows, followed by a fun tractor ride and hands-on experience picking seasonal vegetables to take home.

After lunch, we gathered for the Animal Show and had so much fun watching the farm animals perform fun tricks. We also had the opportunity to walk around and feed some of the animals. It was such a joy to see the children’s curiosity and excitement throughout the day!

We also enjoyed the farm’s play areas, including the slides through farm machinery, tunnels, and wooden trains! We are grateful for the time spent together and for our Room 2 families who joined us and helped make this field trip so special.

“The earth is the Lord’s, and everything in it” (Psalm 24:1). “You care for the land and water it; you enrich it abundantly” (Psalm 65:9-10). We thank God for His beautiful creation and for a joyful day of exploring, playing, and learning together! 🌾🐷🚜💛

We had a wonderful time celebrating our annual Stone Soup Days! Thank you to all our families for providing ingredients, sides, and treats—your generosity made our celebration so special.

We’re excited to share that Room 2 won “Best Soup” in our preschool’s soup contest!

A special thank you to Ari’s dad and Mariah’s mom for volunteering, reading to our class, and helping cook and serve our soup. We are so grateful.

Along with our celebration, the children enjoyed playing together in the big field and yard, adding even more fun to our days.

We had a wonderful time together. Wishing all our families a blessed Thanksgiving!
