Welcome to our April curriculum theme, Grant Wishes!
Our April curriculum theme is Grant Wishes, where little ones will discover the importance of sharing, kindness, and giving! Not only will they explore these values in their classroom, but they'll also live them out through our annual TLE tradition, Let’s Grant Wishes!
Through this partnership with Make-A-Wish, children will use the knowledge they've gained from our philanthropy curriculum to grant wishes for deserving children in our community!

Family Connections
You can help your little one develop their passion for philanthropy this April by inviting them to demonstrate kindness with you! One idea is to create a card for a neighbor, loved one, or a friend with your child. As you make the card, ask your little one about how helping others makes them feel!
