At Arise ‘n’ Shine, we believe that reading is more than just a skill—it’s the key to unlocking a child’s full potential. What makes this journey even more special is the active involvement of our preschool parents. During our recent Reading Carnival, parents stepped into the spotlight as storytellers. They brought stories to life with handmade puppets, exciting books, and captivating voices, creating a memorable experience that captivated our little learners.

The day was filled with excitement as Arise ‘n’ Shine Preschoolers explored Tower Park’s lush greenery and discovered the wonders of the natural world. Guided by their passionate teachers, the young explorers learned about various plants, and trees, all while participating in fun, interactive activities that brought their classroom lessons to life.
