We love celebrating at AOFC and Father's Day was no exception as we honored all our special dads with a Bandana and Boots gathering. There were cowboy hats, bandanas, yummy snacks and even some special horses to ride during the celebration but most importantly all the love and hugs the dads received from there little ones. We hope all the dads felt the love during the event and Happy Father's day from AOFC!
Our Pre K class had a awesome night under the stars as they celebrated their Pre k prom together for the last time before the go to Kindergarten. Everyone had on their best dancing shoes and party clothes to dance the night away at the prom that included a balloon artist, DJ Chris and lots of snacks to help keep up their energy for partying the night away! Pre k prom is always a highlight for our pre k class and seeing them dressed up and having a blast was not only fun but definitely bitter sweet. We can't wait to see all the amazing things our Pre K friends will do in Kindergarten!
We love celebrations at AOFC and one of our favorite things to do is to honor our amazing moms with a very special Mother's day tea complete with hats and delicious pastries. It was so special to hear all the sweet conversations and the oohs and ahhs when special Mother's Day gifts were given and received to each mom. AOFC isn't the same without our amazing families and we loved being able to celebrate all our fabulous mothers before their special day.

Our Pre k one class went on a nature hike to explore bugs, trees, flowers and then came back in to make art with what they collected outside. They were having fun learning about the life cycle of bugs, what trees and flowers need to live as well as how the weather impacts nature every day. When all the nature treasures were collected, they got to go back into the classroom to assemble nature collages. Pre K loves nature , learning and creating at AOFC.
Our Pre K 2 class to a creative approach to shapes, by using marshmallows and toothpicks they were able to assemble shapes according to the shape guide in front of them. They were so proud of their shapes and the brain power and creativity it took to make each one. It was a very innovative and fun way to learn how each shape looks as well as what it is and how to draw it. Kindergarten better watch out for our upcoming Pre K 2 children and all the amazing things they are learning each day. AOFC loves doing STEM learning!
AOFC closed out the month of March and April began with all the fun of Easter including a visit from the Easter bunny and super duper egg hunt for all the classrooms. Eggs hunts, treats and special snacks topped off the week of festivities and we can't wait to see what the rest of April has in store for us. Happy Easter from AOFC!
March started with all kinds of fun St Patrick's day activities in preparation for all the Leprechaun tricks that certain classrooms would experience on that special day. Everything from a shiny gold sensory bin, shamrock necklaces and even a lucky snack made the week festive and ready for a visit from the tricky little leprechaun. There was even fun experiment using milk, food coloring and some dish soap, creating a rainbow reaction a perfect way to celebrate the month! AOFC love all the tricks and fun of St. Patrick's day and the month of March! Happy Spring!
