Election day at AOFC!

Election day is a huge day across our country and a very important day in our Prek 1 and Prek 2 classes as they got to cast their ballot for President and decide what they would have for lunch Wednesday in class. In a landslide vote, mac and cheese won for lunch vs chicken nuggets and the majority vote for President was Trump in both classes. Pre K learned to use a ballot box to cast their votes as well as a lesson on polls and what happens when you win and when you lose. There was lots of excitement as the winner was announced for both lunch and the President.

The voting booth is ready?

Trunk or Treat at AOFC

We have been anxiously awaiting our Fourth Annual Trunk or Treat all month and all of the participants really brought their A game to win the title of favorite trunk and a one hundred dollar gift card to Publix! The teachers voted on their favorites and there were so many awesome ones it was really hard to narrow it down to just one! It wouldn't be trunk or treat without Captain America, Elsa, Anna, Olaf, Skeletons, Fireman, witches and many others that visited all the amazing trunks this morning! It was so much fun seeing all our friends dressed up and excited to trunk or treat with their class! We loved all the fun art projects, dress up days and grab n go's leading up to today! Happy Halloween!

Spiders, bats, and pumpkin week, oh my!!

We have had such a fun spooky week leading up to Halloween! There was a fun Spider craft, a grab n’ go made of goblin teeth( candy corn), witches warts( raisins), ghost parts ( marshmallows), Monster scabs ( Chex cereal)!! The kids loved it and couldn’t wait to eat it on the way out the door and they kept talking about all the treats in the bag and what each thing was! Wednesday was bat necklaces that were super cute and Thursday was Halloween dress up day for both our kids and staff! There were lots of awesome Halloween outfits, headbands, socks and leggings! Some friends even had matching shirts in their class which they loved. Finally the big finale is the Pumpkin contest that each class participated in and the families vote on to decide their favorite. The class winner gets a pizza and ice cream party! What an awesome week!!

Fall Fest at AOFC

Fall Fest at AOFC is one of our favorite events and it gets us in the mood for all things Fall! We had pumpkin painting, pumpkin spice play doh, a leaf scratching station, train rides, a bounce house, frozen hot chocolate and face painting! Plus a visit from ACE and a fall photo booth to top off all the fun for the day. The kids loved talking about what they did and showing off their cool painted pumpkins they get to take home. It was a great day and fall fun was had by all!!
