WELCOME TO OUR FIRST ANNUAL “QUARTER MARKET”!

It was a very exciting day when guests and customers began to arrive at our Nature Explore Classroom to browse the children’s beautiful projects and creations. The children had worked hard for two weeks creating a variety of purchase items such as jewelry, decor, games, planters, etc. The children selected a space in our nature classroom to set up their shop and try to sell their products for $0.25.

Families, community members, and the CSC campus community were all invited to come support our children and their hard work! This was also a great opportunity to showcase our beautiful outdoor space to people unfamiliar with it. The green grass, shade trees, sunshine, and natural environment was the perfect setting for our market. We were encouraged by many guests and families to host this event again every year! We have plans to make this an annual event while also expanding it to be even bigger and better! Next year we are thinking about adding some entertainment for the event as well such as singing and dancing on the music and movement stage, a gymnastics show, and maybe some games using natural materials. We are excited to continue to encourage outdoor participation and exploration!
