Whether you're a SAHP, grandparent watching your grand kids, or Homeschooling, having access to a classroom designated to and designed for learning opportunities can help foster a child's educational journey. Here, learning starts with infancy, and caregivers are invited to take advantage of our Open Classroom Hours for all ages happening this year. Each month, the classroom will be set up with unique themes to engage young learners through play-based activities which promote fundamental learning objectives, highlighting MO Early Learning Standards. Open Classroom Hours are a time for caregivers to stay and explore with their littles, and learn alongside them.
Please sign up ahead of time to ensure the most engaging experience(s)
for your child's age and interests.
Monthly Themes
10/02/2024
Pumpkins
Join us as we explore the ins and outs of pumpkins. We will use shapes to make jack-0-lanterns, compare pumpkin sizes, count pumpkins on vines, and even bust them open to explore their slimy insides!
12/04/2024
Winter
Through comparing and contrasting temperatures while exploring the physics of snow and ice, join as we navigate the different states of water. Math, science and art will help us encompass these changes.
02/05/2025
Valentine's Day
Making connections, bonding with friends, and being a helping hand within a community will all be addressed as hearts and all other shapes take center stage for our activities. We will even combine ingredients, first investigating them separately and then mixed together, to discuss one's important role in a bigger project.

Colors
Hands-on and making messes is the most memorable way to make colors and creations a lasting impression. As colors mix, discussions of how minute changes can make a lasting impact and forever change our world as we know it will be investigated.
11/06/2024
Fall
Working with leaves, sticks and all things fall, we will create works of art while getting elbow deep to manipulate nature as the season changes. Wind, bubbles and water will be some of the media used to carry out science experiments as we explore.
01/08/2025
Alphabet
You may be familiar with how to sing the ABC's, and what better way to explore each letter than to slow things down and break then apart. Speed and rhythm will help guide much of the learning, with music being a large part of this month's deep exploration into the alphabet.
03/05/2025
Numbers
Count on these activities to bring out the most in number exploration, finding as many ways as possible to bring numbers into play. There isn't a date or time we'll experience that doesn't give us an opportunity to find math in what we do.
05/07/2025
Gardening
April showers will help us sprout May flowers, offering a plethora of opportunity to explore the science behind growth from seeds. Join us to count, sort, compare and contrast seeds, plants, roots and soil as we get messy in the outdoors.
