Overflowing with fun

The classic science experiment with a little vinegar and a lot of baking soda never grows old!  Miss Nancy helped our preschoolers see science come to life with exploding volcanoes.  You can see for yourself just how attentive these little learners were.  Let the “lava,” lessons and fun overflow!

Our preschoolers are DINO-MITE!

From paper mache eggs to digging for bones, our junior paleontologists  jumped in a time machine back to the age of dinosaurs.  They unearthed a lot of fun and discovered a world of science from years ago!
