Daycare Events, Enrichment Activities, and Family Fun
Discover More
At Love and Learning Child Care, learning goes far beyond the classroom. Our daycare events are designed to enrich children’s experiences, connect families, and create joyful memories that support social, emotional, and community development.
From seasonal celebrations and field trips to music, movement, and themed learning weeks, our calendar is full of meaningful activities that align with our play-based, Reggio Emilia-inspired approach. Whether your child is part of our infant program or our school-age Exploring Horizons group, they’ll have opportunities to grow, express themselves, and connect through interactive events all year long.
Celebrating Growth and Learning Through Experiences
We believe that children learn best when they are actively involved, emotionally engaged, and surrounded by a supportive community. Our event schedule brings this philosophy to life by offering a wide variety of preschool activities and enrichment opportunities.
Past and recurring events include:
Seasonal Celebrations: Fall harvest days, winter holidays, spring picnics, summer splash weeks
Family Events at Daycare: Parent-child playdates, classroom open houses, cultural sharing days
Learning Themes: Weeks dedicated to nature, community helpers, emotions, and storytelling
Kindness Week: Activities focused on empathy, giving, and positive social interaction
Music and Movement Days: Featuring guest performers or rotating indoor/outdoor music workshops
These experiences help children develop self-confidence, build relationships, and create lasting memories with their peers and educators.
