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 weβre sad to see it go, weβre also excited to be turning the page and starting a fresh new chapter! πβ¨
Weβll soon be sharing updates, photos, and all the fun from our clubhouse in a new blog format β right on our brand new website! ππ»
Thank you for your continued support and for growing with us over the years. π
Today we explored colour mixing with watercolours. We used droppers to watch how the colours spread and blend as we made trees for our Christmas tree farms π¨π²
Today we began our Christmas tree farms! We made a snowy background βοΈ and tomorrow weβll add our trees π²π²π²

While lunch was being made today, the children enjoyed an animated story from one of our favorite books π
We explored our new Christmas book today and loved it! β€οΈ Itβs the perfect addition to our playroom and weβre learning a brand new skill β¦winding up Santaβs sleigh ππ π·
Santa Claus Came to Town ππ
π β¨ We had a very special visitor at daycare today! π₯°
Santa himself stopped by with his reindeer cane, his magic bag, and his special key! He showed us how all the gifts magically shrink to fit inside his bag on Christmas Eve π (he showed us by shrinking his book) and explained how he uses his magic key for houses without chimneys.
We even got to peek inside his book of good girls and boys π and see pictures of his reindeer team! π¦
Before heading back to the North Pole, Santa gave everyone a candy cane π¬β€οΈ We were also so excited to give Santa a big cookie as a thank you for taking the time to visit us (because we all know that Santa loves cookies πͺπ)
β¨οΈ Checking out some of our Christmas decorationsπ Oh, the magic of Christmas through little eyes β€οΈ
A spooky lunch π» and some yummy treats sent in from Amaya's Dada (and there's even one for me π₯°) Thank you so much! The children are looking forward to their donuts after naptime! π©
Happy Halloween! ππ»
We had trick-or-treating around the neighborhood planned for the morning, but due to the rain and wind π§οΈπ¨ we decided to do some indoor trick-or-treating at our local retirement residence (which we had also planned to visit anyway). We had a blast and filled our buckets with yummy treats! ππ«
On our way back, we stopped by a close neighborβs house for one more trick-or-treat! π§‘
This morning, we got to watch a dump truck in action π dumping dirt for a brand new tobogganing hill at the park ποΈβοΈ
Then we walked back to daycare and played with our monster dough πΎπ Everyone got a chance to smell each one and pick their favorite to play with! π
We made glowing mummy lanterns this morning to take home!π―π€ We also brewed up some spooky potions π§ͺππ«§
