Tis the season for Gingerbread House making!

Our kiddos in classroom 3 had a great time this week making their own gingerbread houses and exploring the different tastes and smells! (Of course we had to sample the building materials)

We wish all our staff and families a wonderful winter break and look forward to seeing everyone back in the building on January 6th, 2026!
