Little hands, big discoveries at Lu Sutton 🐞

As part of our Garden of Eatin’® lesson all about “things with wings,” children explored nature through hands-on learning by building bird nests and releasing ladybugs into the garden. Moments like these spark curiosity, connection to the natural world, and joyful learning through play.

Pequeñas manos, grandes descubrimientos en Lu Sutton 🐞

Como parte de nuestra lección de Garden of Eatin’® sobre “cosas con alas,” los niños exploraron la naturaleza a través del aprendizaje práctico construyendo nidos para pájaros y liberando mariquitas en el jardín. Momentos como estos despiertan la curiosidad, la conexión con el mundo natural y el aprendizaje alegre a través del juego. 🌿
