Spring Garden

Springtime is here and we are ready to get our garden in tip-top shape!

All of the kids at Little Wonders got together to work in the garden! They used their compost to prepare the soil and then planted the vegetables, fruit, and flowers that they brought from home!

We all can't wait to see how our garden will grow!

Art Art Art!

There have been a bunch of new thing happening in the after school room lately! The students recently received a new teacher named Ms. Nosheen, and to learn a little bit about who then are and what they like she had them create a collage. First, she explained what a collage was and then gave them magazines, glue, tape, and paper and let them go crazy. The results were beautiful and they were able to talk about their pieces and themselves to each other.

They also started a little competition in the class following the collage project. They decided to start an art contest. They are able to work in whatever medium that they choose and the art work has to be creative! The work will be judged by a few of the teachers here and there will be a grand prize. All of the students are very excited and have been working very hard in class. We will keep you posted on their progress in the following days!
