March Stories

The warm, sunny spring weather has come at last from the cold, snowy winter. With the sky painted bright blue and the glorious, beaming sunlight shining on our skin, we are sure to experience an enjoyable time. From the sprouting buds to the baby birds, this charming season filled with beauty welcomes us with new beginnings, outdoor activities, and delightful weather, all of which make spring such a thrilling season. 

​

During this blooming season, the children at Rainbow Village had the opportunity to engage in a multitude of learning experiences ranging from imaginary play to learning about their body parts.
