Learning Garden Developmental Preschool

Research is proving that children need access to natural settings. Nature has multiple properties that strengthen our body systems and physical strength. Please consider looking at the spaces your children are using and increase natural opportunities.https://www.facebook.com/share/p/1DTjHrTgF9/

I am of an age that I remember the 200 year celebration of our country in 1976. It is crazy how quickly we are now at 250 years as a country. So much good and bad has happened in that time. One thing has not changed, America is the best country in the world to live in -- warts and all. Our freedoms and opportunities are beyond compare. I hope you have an amazing weekend with your family and friends and find gratitude in being an American.

TRUTH!

Love this amazing group of people! What do they do when the toilets stop working and the water needs to be off for the plumber to fix it? Complain? NO, they continue to have enriching experiences with our kiddos. Outside storyline for the win! ❤️

For many kiddos this is the last summer before they start kindergarten. Let this be a summer of exploration, silliness and lots of outdoor activity. Your child doesn't need to drill academics. True kindergarten readiness skills to work on: kindness, asking for help, willingness to try new or difficult things. This summer challenge yourself to let you kids try new things, struggle and learn persistence, fail and learn resilience. They will surprise you with their confidence and competence by the end of the summer. Then they will truly be ready for kindergarten.

Hope you are enjoying this beautiful weather!

So grateful for the skill and professional of Hutchins Construction. They did a stellar job rebuilding our deck, pergola and fence after the storm damage. I will be spending time this weekend getting our outdoor space back in order and ready for the beautiful weather❤️

And so it begins...popsicle season❤️ Hope you make time for a treat today!

We hope you have a blessed day with your family full of love and gratitude!

My heart is so full of gratitude for all of you that shared your stories and contacted legislators this legislative session. You stories made a difference and changed minds and votes. Yesterday the bill to fund Medicaid based home and community based services passed a floor vote and headed to Governor Little's desk. At least for this fiscal year, these services are funded which allows us and many amazing clinicians, speech, occupational and physical therapists to continue to serve individuals with disabilities. Thank you again, your love and resilience are inspiring to us all.
