El Montecito's Outdoor Classroom includes the organic garden, lower playground, outdoor courtyards, and bike yard! What a blessing it is for the children to explore each of these outdoor areas, allowing them to learn and grow among nature.

All we need is Love
Valentine's day is a special time for preschoolers. Lots of cards being made, gifts being given, talking about what love is, and how we can be good friends, etc. I am always amazed by how smart children are, and how much they understand, even at such a young age. Last week we made Valentines that would be sent to the sick or sad people in our community. At first it was hard to have the children understand that they couldn't take their Valentine cards home, but instead, the cards would stay at the school and be mailed out to people. However, once this concept did get through to them, it was really sweet to see how much the children cared about making beautiful Valentine's that would help cheer-up the recipients of these cards. One of the three year olds even said, "Making these cards for the sick people is going to make Jesus so happy." I'm telling you, your children are very smart! But more importantly, they have the biggest hearts- I hope you all enjoy your little Valentines this week :)
