Bugs!

This morning our TASK children put on an informational play for our preschool and pre-k friends! They loved being able to share all their knowledge about bugs with the kiddos! We learned so many bugs facts! 

Feet Painting!

Today marks the first day of our sensory here at the Academy of Harpeth Village! To kick off sensory week the children had the chance to paint with their feet! They loved experiencing the feeling of paint on their feet (even if it was a little cold)! They had a blast and created some masterpieces in the process! 

Relay Races!

For movement week, all the children had the opportunity to participate in a relay race obstacle course! The children had a blast moving through the course with all their friends! The children also learned how movement helps our bodies grow big and strong! 

KBC Visitors!

Today our Kindergarten Bootcamp cadets had a special visit from some friends who are in elementary school! The cadets had the opportunity to learn about all the fun things to expect once they go to kindergarten! Our elementary school friends also read them books about kindergarten! What a special day!

Nature!

This week is nature week at the Academy of Harpeth Village! We have had a blast getting out exploring all the beautiful things nature has to offer! So far, the children have enjoyed a garden sensory bin, a cloud science experiment, a nature walk scavenger hunt, and creating art with items found in nature! We have loved connecting nature to learning in the classroom! 

Kindergarten Bootcamp Update!

We are having a great first week of Kindergarten Bootcamp! The children have had a blast learning all the necessary skills for kindergarten! So far, they have learned their address, walked in line like kindergartners, and worked on their handwriting skills! They are having a blast getting kindergarten ready!

Outdoor Kitchen Time!

This week kicks off our Project Play summer curriculum! This week's theme is outdoor play! Our toddler class got things started by creating an outdoor kitchen! They had so much fun making dirt pies and exploring with different kitchen toys outside! It was so great watching them use kitchen toys in a fun new way!
