On this very last day of the 2024-2025 school year we used up the paint sticks on our own paintings and on the cardboard house, we played with new puzzles and fishing poles, we pushed each other on the swing. In the morning class we had summer birthday cupcakes and in the afternoon we had a popcorn popsicle party. The mulberries are still ripe for picking and eating, the plastic frogs are in the warm soapy water outside. We cleaned the room so much it looked like preschool hadn’t happened today. Thank you, dear families for allowing us to spend time with your children…we have seen tremendous growth in each child and it is so rewarding.

We spent our last Tuesday playing, reading books, meeting newborn babies, having picnics in the wind, lining up the Alphabet Friends, using our muscles, painting rainbows, playing with plastic frogs in soapy water, pushing each other on the swing, finding that our mulberry tree ripened over the weekend and tender goodbyes.

The last days of preschool intentionally feel a lot like a regular day. But on each child’s last day they’ll take home their rainbow bag of things they’ve used all year: their journals, their snack cups, cubby photos, school box items and a big bubble wand to keep breathing through the summer.

We’ll spend our last days of preschool finishing up our journals, using all the leftover collage bits for a group project, play our favorite games, read favorite books, get out our favorite puzzles and end the day with water and mud play!
