Did you know that singing, dancing, and moving together can support early childhood development? 🎶

At Music and Movement, little ones have opportunities to practice listening, coordination, body awareness, rhythm, and social interaction, all while having a great time!

We love creating playful experiences that help children learn, explore, and grow.

Take a peek at our video and see what makes Music and Movement a favorite way to start the week! 🌟

⚡️🎮 Gotta Catch ’Em All at Pokémon Club! 🎮⚡️

We had an AMAZING turnout at today's Pokémon Club, and it was so much fun seeing everyone's enthusiasm for all things Pokémon! 💛❤️

There was something for every Trainer! Some participants showed off their Pokémon card collections, others battled it out in the Pokémon Trading Card Game, and some got creative with Pokémon-inspired crafts and puzzles.

But the activity that really got everyone moving was a fast-paced energy game that Miss Brittney taught us using a special deck she built herself! Trainers raced to capture the most Pokémon by collecting three matching Energy cards. ⚡️🔥💧 The competition was fierce!

🌟 And the highlight of the day? Miss Brittney surprised every participant with a foil Pokémon card of their choice! Seeing everyone pick out their special card was the perfect way to wrap up an incredible program. ✨

A huge THANK YOU to everyone who joined us! We loved seeing so many Trainers come together to share their collections, play games, get creative, and celebrate their love of Pokémon. We can't wait to see you at the next one!
