I believe in the learning through play philosphy and incorporate learning into our daily activities as much as possible. Here are some of our favourite activities. (Please note this page is still a work in progress. More to be added soon.)

Life Cycle of a painted lady butterfly.
We have learned about the butterfly life cycle many times over the years and 2022 was no different. We got our caterpillars on May 17th and watched them grow from itty bitty caterpillars to large ones who went into their Chrysalis. All 9 butterflies finally emerged on June 9th and we enjoyed watching them fly around, watching them eat and just watching them in general. We did release them after a short time and got to spend some time with them sitting on our hands, clothes, etc.
