Happy Earth Day 🌎
Today (and every day), we celebrate the beauty of nature and our role in caring for it. Small hands can make a big difference—let’s keep exploring, protecting, and loving our Earth. 💚

Loose parts play is where imagination truly comes to life 🌿

Sticks become bridges, rocks turn into treasures, and a simple collection of natural materials transforms into endless possibilities. When children engage with loose parts, they’re building creativity, problem-solving skills, and confidence—all through play.

At Tiny Tree School, we love watching our students explore, create, and discover using the beauty of the natural world around them.

✨ There’s no right or wrong way to play—just curiosity leading the way.

The forest has its own rhythm…
the wind sways the branches, the birds call back and forth, and the leaves rustle in steady patterns. 🌬️🌳

In Music Class, with Marian Brackney, our Tiny Trees explored that rhythm with silk scarves floating like leaves in the breeze and boom whackers tapping out steady forest beats. 🎶

We practiced listening carefully, moving with intention, and working together to create music that felt just like nature — flowing, playful, and alive.

When children can see the beat, feel the beat, and move to the beat, they begin to understand it deeply.

At Tiny Tree School, learning grows through movement, music, and moments of joy. 🌿💚

Our students had such a meaningful time creating kindness rocks and hiding them around Blue Hole Regional Park to share a little love with our community.

Each rock carries a message of joy, encouragement, and kindness — a small surprise for someone who might need a smile today. If you’re out walking and discover one, it was made with care by little hands and big hearts. 💛

If you find one, feel free to keep it or re-hide it to keep the kindness growing.
