Los Gatos Parent Nursery School

Did you know? Our playground, affectionately deemed Kids’ Kingdom by the parents and volunteers who built it in 1998, is a great source of pride for our school and delight for the children. In fact, LGPNS children were active participants in the design and construction of the playground. #lgpns #losgatosparentnurseryschool #losgatospreschool #losgatos #losgatosca #cooppreschool

Snowballs! This was a super fun activity our PM kiddos enjoyed at home today. 1 Place a cup of dried beans into an old stocking. 2 Tie a knot low so the beans form a ball shape inside. 3 Dip the outside stocking ball into white paint. ... 4 Have your child stand up and drop their stocking ball onto blue paper. 5 Pick the stocking ball up and see the snowball pattern. 6 Repeat! #snowball #snowballart #snowart #preschool #preschoolactivities #preschoolart #preschoolathome #losgatospreschool #lgpns #losgatosparentnurseryschool #cooppreschool #losgatos #losgatosca

Teacher Catherine’s class read The Snowy Day, by Ezra Jack Keats and made snow designs by mixing white paint and flour. This is a great project to try at home. Finger paint your snow mixture and try using a stick to draw a design, just like Peter does in The Snowy Day. #snowart #sensoryactivity #thesnowyday #preschool #preschoolart #preschoolactivities #preschoolathome #learningthroughplay #learningathome #playbasedlearning #losgatos #losgatospreschool #losgatosca

What happens to sugar cubes when they come in contact with water? This is a fun experiment you can try at home! All you need are sugar cubes, water, food coloring, a pipette, and a shallow plate. #preschoolscience #preschool #science #sugarcubescience #scienceexperiment #absorption #preschoolactivities #preschoolathome #learningathome #losgatosparentnurseryschool #lgpns #losgatos #losgatosca #losgatospreschool #cooppreschool #learningthroughplay #playbasedlearning

Happy #EarthDay from LGPNS! While we are sheltering in place, Teacher Kathy’s students have been busy being Earth Captains, figuring out wonderful ways to help save our Earth, like saving water , picking up trash , and recycling . The kiddos created their beautiful earths using blue and green washable markers on coffee filters. After coloring the filter with the markers, gently spray it with water and watch the colors blend! (Careful not to spray too much or the colors will disappear) Lay out to dry in the sun. #earthday2020 #lgpns #losgatosparenrnurseryschool #losgatospreschool #preschool #preschoolhomeschool #learningathome #saveourplanet #earthdayactivities #earthdayproject
