The kids in Allie’s Place Afterschool have been practicing yoga with Ms. Priscilla from Sweet Water Dance and Yoga, and with the beautiful weather, they recently took their practice outdoors! 🧘🏾‍♂️☀️ In the backyard, students worked on their poses while also exploring the calming sounds of meditative instruments, including a Tibetan singing bowl, Koshi chimes, and a steel tongue drum.

Through movement, breathing exercises, and music, they are learning new ways to relax, stay present, and connect with themselves and the world around them.

Volunteers from American Eagle stopped by Saratoga to help get the Early Ed and Afterschool gardens ready to bloom for summer! 🌻🌱

They planted perennials, sunflowers, and other colorful flowers to brighten up the outdoor spaces. The little ones in Early Ed were excited to see the fresh flowers growing and stopped outside to thank the volunteers and help water the new plants.

A big thank you to our new and longtime friends at American Eagle for their hard work and generous donation in support of our programming!

Saratoga Afterschool is staying engaged through programming that encourages leadership, creativity, and collaboration. New Director Keniesha Lawson shared a sneak peek into what students have been up to lately:

“During reading time, one of our amazing 5th graders took the lead by reading aloud to a 1st grader and a kindergartener. Our older students are actively learning and becoming role models while our younger learners stay engaged and excited about books. Creativity was also in full swing during piano lessons with Mr. Bennet. Students gathered, explored rhythms, and built their musical skills together.”

S’more sunshine, s’more fun! ☀️🍫 The Prospect Panthers recently soaked up the warm weather with a sweet science experiment—solar s’mores. The kids created their own solar ovens by lining pans with foil, layering graham crackers and Hershey’s chocolate inside, and sealing them with plastic wrap to trap the sun’s heat. As the sunlight warmed the treats, the chocolate melted to gooey perfection before the kids added marshmallows and enjoyed their delicious creations.

While their solar-powered snacks baked, they spent time outdoors running around the playground, playing giant Connect Four, and enjoying the beautiful spring weather.
