Nursery Kindergarden

The Nursery Kindergarten group stretched, moved, and discovered their inner superheroes through Superhero Yoga! The children explored different yoga poses while using their imaginations to connect movement with strength, confidence, and mindfulness.

We started with Super Star Pose, reaching our arms wide and shining bright like a star. Next, we practiced Mighty Tree Pose, focusing on standing strong and rooted like a tree. This pose challenged the children’s balance while encouraging them to slow down, focus, and calm their minds. We then powered up with Power Plank Pose, which helped build strength and stamina while encouraging the children to use their whole bodies.

Through Superhero Yoga, the children practiced body awareness, balance, coordination, strength, and self-regulation while having fun pretending to be strong and powerful superheroes!

The Nursery Kindergarten group has been excited to lend a helping hand during our snack preparation! The children have been practicing their kitchen skills by cutting, peeling, and shredding carrots, giving them opportunities to strengthen their hand-eye coordination, fine motor skills, and confidence while using kitchen tools safely. They have also been practicing important social skills such as turn-taking, patience, and working together.

We have been putting our freshly prepared carrots to delicious use through baking activities. The children helped create tasty carrot muffins and carrot loaves, which became a special morning snack to enjoy before school. Through these hands-on experiences, the children are learning that food preparation is not only about creating something delicious—it is also an opportunity to build independence, develop practical life skills, and take pride in contributing to our community.

The Nursery Kindergarten group walked down to our community garden to see what we could harvest. To our surprise and delight, we discovered huge zucchinis, cucumbers, tomatoes, cherry tomatoes, and onions!

With much glee and excitement, the children eagerly explored the garden, pointing out the bright red tomatoes and searching for vegetables that were ready to pick. They were especially excited to carefully pull the cucumbers from the vines and discover the large tomatoes that had ripened to a beautiful red.

Harvesting from our garden gives the children a hands-on opportunity to learn about where our food comes from, observe how plants change as they grow, and develop an appreciation for caring for and growing food. The children’s excitement and curiosity made this garden adventure a wonderful learning experience—and we can’t wait to see what we discover next!
