Our summer campers have been hard at work engineering contraptions for our Annual Egg Drop. After a week of trial and error, it was finally time to put them to the test! Huge shoutout to Mr. Drew for helping us drop our designs from the top of the Sunbelt. It was such an exciting event for our little learners. You ROCK!

Children experience all the same emotions as adults, but they aren’t yet equipped with the tools to handle those feelings. The first step toward understanding their big feelings is helping them learn how to recognize and name their emotions. At The Goddard School - McKinney - Craig Ranch we like asking open-ended questions like “What is something that makes you happy or sad?” or “Can you show me what face you make when you are happy, sad or angry?” This gives children the opportunity to share their emotions and show what they know about them. This exercise had Goddard students using emojis to identify each emotion in honor of World Emoji Day. 😊😕😆😥😴 Give it a try with your little one!

Did you know that between the ages of 2 and 5 years old, children ask an average of 40,000 questions? We say, bring them on! Our Wonder of Learning™ education program, found only at The Goddard School®, is the most innovative, well-researched program on the market, focused on how children learn best: through play, exploration and following their natural curiosity. By asking questions and finding their own answers (then asking more questions!), children develop a lifelong love of learning.

☀️🌧️ When the rain let up for a bit, we couldn't wait to get outside! We spent the morning harvesting fresh lettuce, tomatoes, and peppers with Farmer Rick and treated ourselves to delicious snowcones. It was the perfect way to make the most of a summer day! 🌱🍧

Happy National Creativity Day! 🎨✨
Creativity is all about giving children the freedom to make and play on their own. An activity we love at Goddard is painting with anything BUT a paintbrush! 🖌️ Whether it’s string, fork, or feathers, children can use everyday objects to create extraordinary works of art. Creativity is child-led, so let your child's imagination run wild as they learn how to innovate while they create!
