We are beyond thankful for the amazing teachers who pour so much love, patience, creativity, and care into our children every single day. From messy hands to comforting little hearts and celebrating big milestones, our teachers do it all with so much heart.

Thank you for creating a space where children feel safe, loved, supported, and excited to learn through play and exploration. The impact you make reaches far beyond the classroom, and we are so grateful for each one of you.

Please help us show our teachers some extra love this week! 💛

Z is for Zest 🍋

This week, we explored citrus in a hands-on way! The children worked with lemons, blood oranges, and oranges while learning about the fruit's different layers and what it means to “zest.”

They carefully used child-safe knives to cut their own fruit before zesting the peel, such a fun and empowering experience!

✨ Did you know? Zesting citrus helps strengthen fine motor skills by building hand control, coordination, and precision.

👏🏼🏆🥇 ROUND OF APPLAUSE for our four year old class for achieving 100 HOURS OUTSIDE so far in 2026! From January to March, these kiddos have soaked in that sunshine and fresh air while participating in circletime, readalouds, activities, scavenger hunts, and so much more. When you get to pull up in your Little Tikes Cozy Coupe for circletime, you know you’re in the best place to do some learning! 💯

Of course you’ve heard the saying “Teamwork makes the dream work,” but at Bayou & Bloom we put that into action everyday. Our kiddos spend time outdoors daily with endless possibilities to dream big and soak up time with friends. It’s incredible to see their ideas come to life with the help of their schoolmates and to witness the joy they share when working together. Collaborative play is a fundamental part of our school and there’s no better place to learn and build the foundations of teamwork than the great outdoors!
