Thank you, IKEA! - Life Improvement Challenge Days 4 & 5

7/29/2016

 
From all of us at Children Today, thank you IKEA Carson for investing so much time and effort, and so many resources into this IKEA Life Improvement Challenge week.  We thought we were getting a redecorated lobby. We got that, and so much more!

It's Christmas in July, folks.  Our new best friends at IKEA Carson just asked the teaching staff what other things they needed in their classrooms and then came back with - basically - all of those things.

Some more storage in the preschool classroom?  Here you go.

A workstation for teachers to do paperwork inside the classroom? Voila!  (Look at these chairs).
Cozy chairs for our book nook?  Take these.

Bedding and soft furnishings for the infant room?  Have several.

Play mats for the infant yard?  Already being used.

Smocks for our budding artists?  How cute are these?

​I could go on.  

Stay tuned for even more wonderful things from IKEA as our Life Improvement Challenge week continues.

Back in April, we won the IKEA Life Improvement Challenge to make over a space in our beautiful Eco House facility (thanks to all of you who voted for us)!

This week, our new friends from IKEA Carson have come out in force to build furniture, decorate our lobby, and provide us with storage solutions for our offices and classrooms. 
We are so excited to have IKEA Carson working with us this week and can't wait to see the finished product!  We'll keep you posted!

​The World Forum Nature Action Collaborative for Children introduced International Mud Day back in 2011 in order to bring awareness to the growing need to connect young children with nature.  Children Today joined the celebration by providing a variety of mud experiences to engage the infants, toddlers, and preschool children at their various stages of development.
It was an amazing day of discovery, math, and science as our children were provided the opportunity to experience that…Dirt + Water = Mud (and a whole lot of fun)!
