 XOXO Week

Happy Birthday to our sweet friend!

X is for Xylophone!

We made our own Xylophones in school!

Ask your little scientist to tell you what happens to the "music" when you add water to the glasses!!!

And then we made our own x xylophones too!

We hoped you loved "reading" our Transportation Books as much as we loved making them!

Playing outside is so cool!!

Afternoon DRESS UP was such a HIT!!

Did you know that God loves it when we sing our prayers?

Our PreK-3 Band sounded AMAZING!!!

Ask your little musician all about it!

Show and Tell Fun!

We LOVED planting our flowers in our PreK-3 Planter!  Be sure to sneak a peek next time you're on our playground!

Showing off our GREEN THUMBS!

Did you know that your little scientist is now a ROBOT PROGRAMMER?!?!  We had so much fun learning to code on our BeeBots this week!!

Be sure to ask your little engineer all about it!

We hope you all had as much fun at Crayola Experience as we did!!

XOXO For Our PreK-3 Friends!!

It's going to be hard saying goodbye to this group... 😢
