During the holiday season we know how easy it is to get caught up in the hustle and bustle! Sometimes we may even need to intentionally create moments that remind us to slow down and to focus on what Christmas is truly all about! At City Kids School one way we do this is by […]
Have you ever found yourself saying “Wow, I wish I could just go back to being a child. . . no responsibilities, play all the time, no bills to pay, no car to worry about… ” and the list goes on!! Truly I think we sometimes forget to give these little humans the credit they […]

Painting, numeric-awareness, encouraging, building or care taking, we often notice some of these gifts in our kids from a really young age. I remember vividly being 3 or 4 years old saying that the two things I wanted to be when I grew up were: a mom and a teacher. My mom says that I […]
I am from a small island in the Caribbean called Puerto Rico. Over there we don’t have seasons. Well, we have two, hot and hotter. You can literally be going to beach on Christmas day and build yourself a sand/snowman. So, when I moved to the States, I discovered the beauty behind the seasons! The […]
If you are a parent, uncle, grandparent, teacher or caregiver you have probably experienced the “WHY” phase with one of your kids! It is one of the most interesting and sometimes difficult times we go through as parents, as we must seek patience and understanding after we respond 10 times to the question “Why is […]
Winter in the Pacific Northwest can be a challenging time for preschoolers (and their mommies and daddies!) Shorter, colder, wetter days means more time indoors and more time to try and fill with engaging activities. What is a parent to do when they start to feel the “stir crazy” coming and want to limit the […]
When we think about giving during the holidays, we usually think about giving monetarily to those in need. We need to remember we can also be giving with our time and talents. As children we all learned the scripture during Christmas time from Acts 20:35 NIRV,“It is more blessed to give than to receive.” There […]
As I sit here writing this post about City Kids School’s “Night of Christmas”, I can’t help but smile as I replay that catchy Christmas song in my head and picture my students singing their little hearts out for Jesus!!! Thursday Night was such a beautiful reminder of what we do and who we are […]
The holiday season has arrived quicker than saying “Merry Christmas” and with it comes, the busiest time of the year for many of us. Isn’t it so interesting how one of the seasons that is meant to be the most joyful, can easily become the most stressful? Planning meals, buying presents, visiting relatives, decorating and […]
