Preschoolers discovered a hawk nest in one of our Oak trees on the playground! This hawk has visited us many times this year and each time is an amazing sight to see! Preschoolers learn lessons about how birds live, predator vs. prey, boundaries with wild animals and it sparks questions for young learners about their natural world! We are so lucky!!! 🦅

We are so lucky to have an awesome custodian at the Child Labs. Josue Zapata from the UConn custodial operations department taught a lesson about how important his job is, what to recycle and how tools are used to Preschoolers this morning 💙 He even gave them goodie bags for them to take home! We are so lucky!
