Thank you to all the families who joined us for Garden Magic Mornings today! ๐ŸŒฟโœจ

We loved seeing each childโ€™s creativity shine as they designed their own unique garden creationโ€”no two were alike! One of our favorite surprises was the impromptu puppet show that emerged, reminding us how magical open-ended play can be.

Thank you for spending your morning with us. We canโ€™t wait to create, explore, and imagine together again soon! ๐Ÿ’š๐ŸŒผ

Today we gathered for one of our favorite traditionsโ€”our end-of-year family picnic. ๐ŸŒž๐Ÿงบ

Together we shared snacks, laughter, popsicles, and precious time with the families who make our Little Nestlings community so special. As we celebrate all the growth, friendships, discoveries, and memories from this school year, weโ€™re also feeling a little bittersweet.

For some of our children and families, this is goodbye for now as they spread their wings and begin new adventures. For others, itโ€™s simply โ€œsee you soonโ€ as we look forward to another year together.

Thank you for trusting us with your children, supporting our school community, and making this year so meaningful. We hope your summer is filled with wonder, play, and plenty of time outdoors.

Good bye school year - happy summer, Little Nestlings families! ๐Ÿ’›

One of our favorite annual traditions!๐Ÿ›๐Ÿฆ‹

Over the past few weeks, weโ€™ve had the incredible opportunity to observe tiny Painted Lady caterpillars transform through each stage of their life cycle. From hungry caterpillars to chrysalises and finally beautiful butterflies, the children watched with wonder, asked thoughtful questions, and learned so much about metamorphosis.

Earlier this week we celebrated by releasing our butterflies into the garden, where they can continue their journey. Experiences like these help children build a connection to the natural world while fostering curiosity, patience, and a sense of awe.
