Penfield

Wrapping up Week of the Young Child with more fun photos! Kids and teachers enjoyed painting and most of all, making handprints! Our creative projects are now on display throughout the hallways at Penfield for staff and families to enjoy.

Today our kids participated in a garden project to celebrate Week of the Young Child! We had fun choosing either flower or pumpkin seeds and getting them ready for planting. #weekoftheyoungchild #growwithus #learnandgrow #penfieldkids

Today's Week of the Young Child theme is "Tasty Tuesday!" Our kids enjoyed fruit salad to celebrate! We are thankful to our guest readers Mr. Ron, our CFO, and Mrs. Ashley, owner of Rooted MKE for sharing their favorite books with us.
