Abstract Art from Nature
Gardening
There is so much to learn from gardening! Our afterschool group is helping plant veggies and flowers in our Spring garden.
Butterflies!
It was an exciting day at afterschool! Our caterpillars turned to butterflies and we were able to hold them gently and then set them free!
Sand and Water Play
Sensory play is important throughout the early years. Mixing, measuring and experimenting with textures and materials is also a great way to explore STEM concepts through play!
Making Art Outdoors with Afterschool
One of the things we like to do most in afterschool is make process-based art in the great outdoors! Surrounded by beautiful trees, flowers, butterflies and more makes for the perfect inspiration.
