#Rainbow families and teachers spent Tuesday and W

#Rainbow families and teachers spent Tuesday and Wednesday of this week engaged in one of our favorite traditions to partner with families... the Listening Conference.

As our families sit down with us at a listening conference, our teachers inherently create a space of “presence and pause.” We open with some type of provocation, usually centering the child, maybe a little breathwork, and really naming that this is the time for the family to share all of the ways that their child’s light is being brought into this universe, the way that they hope their child will grow, the way they hope their child will be honored. This is a time in which our teachers listen deeply.

Episode 11 of our Kaleidoscope video podcast is all about engaging in the practice of deep listening. Check it out and remember to download the companion PDF resource! (Links to our blog can be found on our website and in our social media bios)

In early childhood, play is the foundation of lear

In early childhood, play is the foundation of learning. It encourages diverse vocabulary, foundational mathematics concepts, and ensures that the child’s relationship to school is fostering inquiry, engagement, joy and purpose.

Enjoy these photos of our youngest learners exploring and learning in our early childhood outdoor learning environment during the first two weeks of school!

Fall is right around the corner and we can't think

Fall is right around the corner and we can't think of a better time for a retreat into the Spiritual and Creative Domains. Our Business Sponsor, Sharon Hyman with In-Joy Therapy & Yoga (@sharoninjoy), has a magical offering for you:

FALL MICRO- RETREAT (all are welcome)
Saturnday, October 3rd
10am-1pm EST | $110.00
Early bird cost: $ 110
After September 4th, cost is $125

Fall into Fall with a mindful movement practice, some deep rest and rituals to pause + grow. When we create time for creativity and ritual, we ground ourselves in presence. When we clear the deck and tune inward, we remember who we are and how we want to live.
