Screen time often isn’t active learning—but activities like playing, reading, building, and exploring are powerful ways to boost kids' IQ, fine motor skills, visual perception, gross motor skills, and so much more! Encourage active play and hands-on experiences to help kids grow, learn, and thrive!

CLOUDS students enjoying their favorite time of day—recess! So many smiles and so much fun at Grapeland Elementary.

Caryn's Transitional Kindergarten had a special Shape Cafe event!
The students have been learning all about shapes and put their skills to the test by opening a cafe for some very special guests, including Mr. T, Mrs. Parker, Mr. Rudy, and other staff members.
The "customers" placed their orders, and the students built the requested shapes using marshmallows and pretzels. Creativity, teamwork, and big smiles were everywhere—so much fun was had by all!
