If your child came home saying that they went to a petting zoo or had ice cream from an ice cream truck, it really happened and was not just in their adorable imaginations.  Last spring at our fundraising event at the iconic Whiskey a Go Go on the Sunset Strip, we had not one, but two lucky winners of a chance to be our Head of School for the day.  On the first day, the children ate sherbet from the “Happy Ice” truck compliments of our friend and Head of School Beau, who has been with us since preschool. 

The children’s big night was finally here!  Family and friends gathered for an evening of learning about our month-long theme of “In the Garden”.  We learned about some friendly garden insects, bees and ladybugs. There were ladybugs and a beehive that the children made on display, and our caterpillars began to emerge from their chrysalises. We also learned about seeds, and we even grew our own pots of grass from seed.  We will cut the grass next week with some scissors.  Next we learned about sunflowers because their seeds are highly visible, and all kinds of animals love eating them, including humans!
