Good educators are the heart and soul of any childcare center. At the Academy of Seaboard Lane, we are always looking for educators that go above and beyond, exceeding expectations. From engaging in fun dances or participating in dress up days, these educators work hard each day, giving their creativity and energy to their kiddos.

Water Day! Water Day!
"Water Day! Water Day!" the kids chant as they line up outside waiting for their turn to climb the water slide.
Our summer program is so exciting and engaging and one of the best parts is water day! Every Thursday in June and every Friday in July, all of our friends-infants through Pre-K, get to participate in water day! They come dressed in their water clothes and during each classes outside time, they can play with a variety of water toys like splash pads, sprinklers and water slides!
We LOVE water day!

Special Guests!
We love a good special guest at AoSL! Special guests are such a fun way to enhance our program. No matter the theme, we can find a special visitor to make it come to life! Be it a princess leaving her royal kingdom during Disney Days, Mother Goose reading us stories or a meteorologist teaching us during Weather Week, we love to welcome a variety of visitors.
We make sure that all of our friends, big and small, get to engage with our special visitors. Our characters make classroom visits for our younger friends, while our older kiddos gather in our enrichment room. This extra space allows them to sing, dance and interact directly with our guests. We are very grateful for a network of visitors to make each moment special at the Academy of Seaboard Lane!

Classroom Engagement
It might be summer but our learning and engagement never stops here at The Academy of Seaboard Lane! For some, summer is a time to lay around, not doing much. Here, summer means more time to learn, play, and get active. From infants to preschool, our educators are always thinking of new ways to engage with their friends. Our educators aren't afraid to get on the kids' level, get messy, and get creative!
Whether it's a craft, sensory bin, circle time or other exploration, there is always educational fun happening at The Academy!

Happy Father's Day!
Last week at AoSL, we celebrated our fathers with our Popsicles with Pop event Our friends were able to share a yummy popsicle with their dads, while doing a fun sand art project!
Dads are so important in a child's life and sometimes, they do not get the recognition they deserve. A dad is a child's first hero, first buddy, first partner in crime. As we as early childhood educators know, a child's first word is often "dada."
Here at The Academy, we are very thankful to have such caring and involved fathers! We enjoyed providing a space for them to relax and we hope all of our fathers and father figures had a great Father's Day Weekend!

Summer, Summer, Summertime
Summer is here at AoSL and we had a great summer kick off week! We are so excited to start our summer program with this year's theme, "Let Them Play." At the Academy, we believe in learning through play. Our teachers get to let their creativity shine with new and engaging activities during each week's theme. This year's theme includes everything from Under the Sea, Out of This World, Disney days, Dino Romp and more! We got prepared to play by adding new toys and items to our classrooms.
We started our summer with a trip to the beach. Our teachers and friends got to play with fun beach toys, wear their favorite Hawaiian shirts, and take home a pair of cool sunglasses for a grab and go. We even ended the week with a special visit from Tikiz Shaved Ice! We can't wait to make this the best summer ever!

Happy Mother's Day!
Buzz activities are one of favorite ways to engage our families, and our moms are some of our favorite people! During our most recent buzz activity, we got to celebrate our moms with a Mommy and Me Paint & Sip! We love being able to create a space for bonding and creativity. Our friends and their moms were able to enjoy some sparkling cider while making a painting that was unique to just them. Some of our preschool friends participated in a worksheet that was all about their mom. They got to express more creativity in their responses! We hope that all of our moms enjoyed their Mother's Day Weekend that was all about them!

Parent Appreciation
Ahead of the upcoming Teacher Appreciation Week, we took an opportunity to show some appreciation to our parents! We are constantly grateful that these parents choose us to care for their precious little ones each day. Part of our job is to make their job's easier, so we welcome the chance to take something off their plate. This time, we were able to add something to their plates with a fun, sack lunch to celebrate National Picnic Day! We hope that all of our parents enjoyed their lunch and know how special and loved their children are with us. Our parents shower us with compliments and gifts so it's always nice to give them something extra!
