Welcome to our blog!
After 12 wonderful years, our original Facebook page for Caterpillar Clubhouse Daycare has been hacked and unexpectedly been taken down. While we’re sad to see it go, we’re also excited to be turning the page and starting a fresh new chapter! 📖✨
We’ll soon be sharing updates, photos, and all the fun from our clubhouse in a new blog format — right on our brand new website! 🐛💻
Thank you for your continued support and for growing with us over the years. 💚
✨🍋 It was a little chilly outside this morning, so instead of a liquid, we explored with solid “lemonade” (rice)! Once it warmed up in the afternoon, we switched to liquid play 💧🍋
We loved using our kid-safe knives and cutters to slice and press real lemons all while engaging our senses through the fresh smell, texture, and juiciness of the lemons. 😊
Story Walk in the Park 🌳📖
This morning we enjoyed “There Was An Old Lady Who Swallowed a Shell” 👵🐚 The children had so much fun racing from page to page and following along with the story 🙃
Today we explored the library! We practiced our quiet voices and loved choosing books to bring back to daycare 😊📚
Watercolor painting💧🎨 this morning, then we headed outside for another tea party once the rain cleared 😊
The Tiger Who Came to Tea🐅☕️🫖
An invitation to play exploring the story The Tiger Who Came to Tea with a pretend tea party! 😊🥖🥐🫖☕️🍪 The children enjoyed this one so much that we’ll keep it outside ready for play for the rest of the week. 🙂
We have a Caterpillar Clubhouse graduate visiting with us for a few days this week who I cared for as a toddler until she started kindergarten. It’s so sweet to see her helping with a new group of toddlers. Such a full circle moment 😊🥰 The first photo is from her very first week with me at age two…and now she’s about to start grade 6. Time truly flies!
A much needed rainy day 🌧 gave us the perfect reason to enjoy some of the newer toys in our downstairs playroom that we haven’t explored much yet 😊
Beating the heat with a visit to Mini Space Kids today! 🌞🚀 The perfect way to stay cool and burn off some energy indoors! 😎
Whew, it’s a hot one out there today 🥵🔥🌡☀️ We enjoyed some early outdoor morning play before it got too hot then headed inside to cool off with a craft and free play time 😊
A fun summer morning at the splash pad with a surprise visitor 🐸😄 We each had a turn to gently hold the frog before we returned him safely to the pond 💦💙☀️
Once these little campers got too hot outside, we headed inside for some cool quiet play with our new alphabet blocks 🔤 Perfect for building letter recognition! 😊
I was up early this morning packing a toddler style picnic lunch for our park adventure today! 🧺🍓🧃☀️
