Father's Day is just around the corner!

Each year on Father's Day we celebrate the men who serve as parents, coaches, teachers, and mentors to children. It takes a heart full of love and generosity to serve in these roles, so to show our appreciation, QCC kids will be doing activities and making crafts this week to honor the men who make such a big difference in the lives of the children they love. 

Having fun in the sun with messy art!

What a fun day! We took advantage of the beautiful weather last week and went outside to make some "messy art."

Costume Dress-Up Day

What kid doesn't love to play dress up?! But it's not just for fun and games. Playing with costumes and dressing as different characters fires up children's imaginations and allows them to explore new ideas and concepts that they don't run into in their day-to-day life. Check out this awesome article from the National Association for the Education of Young Children about how playing dress-up can be an important (and fun!) part of learning.

This article by Dr. Laura Markham provides tips and real-world examples of how we can cultivate healthy social and emotional development for the children in our care.  

QCC Oylmpics 2017 is Right Around the Corner!

Every year the children from all six centers get together in a central location to play games and compete against each other. We keep score and the winner gets to take home the trophy. Our center in Ft. Smith on Savannah Street has won two years in a row! Can they do it again?!

We will all be meeting at the Lake Dardanelle State Park in Russellville this year on June 10th for a day that is sure to be packed with fun and learning! Parents are welcome to join us, so come on out if you can.
