Everybody loves to read street signs. Environmental print inspires discussion, sparks an interest, and builds a foundation of knowledge for new readers that will serve them for the rest of their lives! #creativejourneyspreschool #twistinfamilychildcare #earlyed #changingtheworld #handsonlearning #howtheylearn #environmentalprint #earlylearning #preschool #education #teaching #developmentalacademics #earlyliteracy https://www.instagram.com/p/ByqH8y9h9_C/?igshid=tfcn8yiow15c

It’s completely silent and concentration is total. All focus is on carving the stick, sliver by sliver, on carefully evening out the edges of the piece of wood. Is it going to be a bark boat? A barbecue stick? Or maybe even a magic wand? A stick is not a stick! Working with a vegetable peeler and a stick can give long moments of pleasure. It gives adult and children alike an almost meditative feeling of being in the present. As always when working with a vegetable peeler one needs to have respect for the tool, both adults and children alike. When I carve wood together with children, we need to be aware of what we do with the tool, how we carve and how we behave. Safety is #1 priority!! #creativejourneyspreschool #twistinfamilychildcare #earlyed #changingtheworld #handsonlearning #howtheylearn #steam #preschool #education #teaching #play #playbasedlearning #inquirybasedlearning #parentsofinstagram #preschoolsofinstagram #reggioinspiredpreschool #progressiveeducation #developmentalacademics #families #parents #qualitystartoc #inquirybasedlearning #learningthroughplay https://www.instagram.com/p/ByTQHUphOlY/?igshid=rnvj2hnn0pof

Kids love to play outside and explore nature! I love when the children spend quiet moments creating that has a lovely process and is full of creativity. I also love when that art happens to turn out breathtakingly beautiful! #creativejourneyspreschool #twistinfamilychildcare #earlyed #changingtheworld #handsonlearning #howtheylearn #steam #preschool #education #teaching #play #playbasedlearning #inquirybasedlearning #parentsofinstagram #preschoolsofinstagram #reggioinspiredpreschool #progressiveeducation #developmentalacademics #families #parents #qualitystartoc #natureplay #urbannature #learningthroughplay #designthinking #sustainable #earlylearning https://www.instagram.com/p/ByJA00cBQsK/?igshid=vryw5v59tgd6

Learning Together / Doing Together  Margaret Thatcher once famously said to a volunteer group: True companionship comes not from being together, but from doing together. One of the most effective Preschool ways of doing together is to invite young children to learn together. Companionship comes not from being together, but from doing together. #creativejourneyspreschool #twistinfamilychildcare #earlyed #changingtheworld #handsonlearning #howtheylearn #steam #scienceinaction #engineering #earlylearning #twistinfamilychildcare #learningthroughplay #reggioinspiredpreschool #progressiveeducation #developmentalacademics #families #parents #qualitystartoc #inquirybasedlearning #preschoolsofinstagram https://www.instagram.com/p/ByGYYoQBbDZ/?igshid=vmqfy42gulzy

Sharing experiences! I shared my painting experience at @pinotstustin @wonderschool with my group of children. They were very eager to try their own "Turtle Painting". I helped with drawing the turtle shape with a pencil. They went to town with tracing with a sharpie and watercolor paint on watercolor rectangles. It was a really great experience as each were different yet the same! Great learning opportunities! #creativejourneyspreschool #twistinfamilychildcare #earlyed #changingtheworld #handsonlearning #howtheylearn #creativity #preschool #reggioinspiredpreschool #progressiveeducation #developmentalacademics #families #parents #qualitystartoc #inquirybasedlearning #preschoolsofinstagram https://www.instagram.com/p/ByDmIwEhbce/?igshid=1dcnlnbe9y307
