Back to School!

Happy Back-to-School! 

Parker returned to his play-based, nature focused preschool on Monday, now attending five days a week (!) from 8:30am-11:30am. We just adore the stimulating environment, celebration of diversity, opportunities for enrichment (Mandarin, Spanish, music, art) and the fabulous 21 acre campus with gardens, creeks, forests and (Parker's favorite) the goats! 

Though little man was academically ready for kindergarten this year, he really needed another year to socially and emotionally prepare (plus, he won't turn five until March so his birthday most definitely did not make the cut anyway). Returning to the same place (with the same teacher!) I think will be so beneficial to him!

We visited last week to deliver supplies, check out his cubby and bring in a new pair of rain boots (one of my favorite things about the school - they wear these when visiting the creek or playing in the rain!).
