Happy Birthday, Sarah! Today we celebrated a very special birthday together — with cake, candy, and a piñata full of surprises. 🥳

⚽ Sports Day World Cup 2026 Theme

With the 2026 World Cup in the air, the morning was all about soccer — reading and vocabulary worksheets, "soccer math," coloring, and a friendly Go Fish word game. Goal! ⚽

🔬 Science Experiment Fizz & Pop!

Next up — a little chemistry magic! The kids mixed baking soda and vinegar and watched the fizz blow a balloon up all by itself. Gasps and giggles all around. 🎈

Creative time meant Canada maple-leaf fridge magnets and colorful beaded bracelets — little keepsakes to take home from Week 1.

🎉 Birthday & Piñata The Grand Finale

The best surprise came last — a birthday piñata! One by one the kids lined up, took aim, and swung for the candy inside. When it finally burst, the treats rained down to squeals of delight. 🍬
