Hands, hearts, and a whole lot of joy.
This week our toddler friends dove into a group painting project together — sharing trays, taking turns, and creating something all their own. You can see it on their faces: pure pride in what their little hands made.

Art time isn’t just messy fun (though it is!) — it’s where our youngest learners build fine motor skills, creativity, and connection with their friends. 💛

✨ Big feelings, bold colors!

Our toddlers have been busy this week filling pages with color — and every scribble is doing more than it looks. Scribbling builds hand strength, hand-eye coordination, and early writing skills, all while giving little ones a chance to express themselves freely.

We love watching their confidence grow, one crayon stroke at a time. 🖍️

🧡 There’s a special kind of stillness that happens when a toddler finds their book.

This little one settled right into the reading nook this week, flipping through page after page all on his own. No prompting needed — just curiosity, comfort, and a cozy spot to explore.

Independent play like this builds focus, language, and a lifelong love of books — one quiet moment at a time. 📚

🎶 Music time is BACK in Beaver Creek Classroom! 🎶

Our toddlers were absolutely buzzing with excitement to see Miss Lisa again after the summer break — you could see it on their faces! Music enrichment is such a special part of the day here, and it’s so much more than just fun and songs.

At this age, music builds language skills, listening skills, coordination, and emotional connection — all while giving our little ones a joyful, hands-on way to explore the world around them. 🎵👣

We’re so grateful to offer music enrichment across all of our classrooms and to have Miss Lisa back with our Beaver Creek friends!

We're building our substitute teacher team for the school year — and we're looking for about 8 people to fill it out. If you've been thinking "maybe I should look into that," this is your sign.

On-call means flexible: pick up a shift when it works for you, skip the weeks it doesn't. No lesson planning, no long hours, just showing up for kids who'll be genuinely happy to see you.

Spots like this don't stay open long once the school year gets rolling — reach out today and let's talk.

Building Confidence, One Adventure at a Time! 🌋

Our preschool class closed out summer break with a trip to Lava Island — and it was so fun watching them grow! They climbed the volcano, balanced across the rope bridge, and zoomed down the big slide with so much confidence.

We have limited openings remaining:
🟢 Preschool 1 (ages 2.5–3.5): 2 spots
🟢 Preschool 2 (ages 3.5–5): 4 spots

It was a fast and furious week of fun as we closed off the summer . Our big kids went to 🚂 Train depot Museum in Livingston to learn about trains from days gone by.
Immersive learning experiences are the best. Sitting in the conductor seat, looking at the diorama and imagining what fun it might have been to ride the train , was great fun.

Our Friday adventure club will kick off in September for students 4-12. Each week we plan various field trips to explore local history and experience learning in a new way.
