Our PreSchool Blog

Our study of gardens and flowers aligned nicely with our handmade Mother’s Day Cards.  The toddlers used stickers and drawn stems for the inside of the card while a sweet fingerprint bouquet was on the front.  We also created flowers using the bottom of a bottle and stickers.

We moved onto our focus on water and the ocean using sensory tubs and crafts.

Summer Sweets:  making muffins, creating popsicles, and ice cream match!

Summer!!!

This Friday, we say “Thank You” to all the wonderful moms in the Creative Tots Family.   Jean-François will be on hand serving his “Gaufre de Liège” authentic Belgian waffle for all to enjoy!  Don’t miss this!  This year we are celebrating Creative Tots Mothers with a unique treat brought all the way from Belgium.  Originating from the city of Liège, these waffles are immensely popular throughout all of Europe and is is one of few products prepared to be eaten “on the go”. It is typically served in a paper wrapping and eaten with the hands…no plate or fork required.  The dough of the Liège waffle is sweeter and denser than “Belgian waffles” as we know them in the U.S. It is made from thick dough and coarse Belgian beet sugar.  A specialized cast iron press caramelizes the sugar on the outside, giving it a delightful sweetness.  Happy Mothers Day!
