These toddlers are still fascinated by metamorphosis, so Ms. Carissa and Ms. Rownak continue incorporating caterpillars and butterflies into conversations and activities. Teach toward child interests—this is learning that sticks! 🦋 @RISDECS

Toucans combined "Work Together Wednesday" and "Artsy Thursday" by creating a robot using 100% recyclable materials! Each worked on different parts of their group's robot, then worked together to complete the whole body of the robot! #RISDDreamBig#WOYC26#FutureEngineers
Artsy Thursday happened on Friday for Little Mustangs infants. Squishing paint with little toes and making tiny footprints… cuteness overload! #RISDDreamBig#RISDcla@RISDecs@JWhiteRISD
Process, Not Product 🎨🚗
Our FLC kiddos explored creativity with car track painting—using toy cars and paint to create one-of-a-kind masterpieces! Every creation is unique—and that’s the goal! 💛 #WOYC26@RISDecs#RISDDreamBig@RISDFamCenter
Our toddlers at the RISD Family Center teamed up to build skyscrapers—exploring math and science concepts through play! From “over” and “under” to learning how to work side by side, these moments build both skills and connections. #WOYC26@RISDecs#RISDDreamBig@RISDFamCenter
It’s Music Monday at Little Eagles CLA, as we celebrate #WOYC26
The Redbirds chose to sing 🎶 Happy Birthday🎶 to me (not my bday), while tapping out the beat with their shakers! They kept calling the shakers “tacos” due to the half-circle shape. 😂#RISDDreamBig

Our first Wheels Day with the Toucans class was a joy!
Tiny helmets, big smiles, and so much growing happening.

There’s nothing fancy here—and that’s the point.
Water. Cereal-sand. Curious hands.
When simple materials meet caring adults, something powerful unfolds: connection, discovery, real learning.
This is where it all begins.

It was all about The Gingerbread Man at Little Mustangs this week! Gingerbread scented messy play, pretending to bake and actually making gingerbread. So fun!!! #RISDDreamBig @RISDecs #RISDcla @kristinleeper9
