First Friends Preschool

You know the weather isn’t great when Mrs. Matthews is forced to wear shoes!
Rogers Public Schools are closed tomorrow, January 27th, so First Friends is closed too. Doug says it’s a great day sit in your favorite chair and have a snack.

Mrs. Matthews went to kindergarten too!
This is the face of someone who loved to go to school and still loves it. ❤️
The transition to “big school” can be emotional in many ways. I was a little scared and alot excited, and I cried on the first day every single year. (Even all four years of college!)
I was ok, and all of our babies who head out to school this month, from kindergarten to graduate school will do great! This year marks the 21st group of children to head off to kindergarten and we hope they have an amazing time!

The playground gardens at First Friends are our favorite place to be! We have already harvested sugar snap peas and green beans and we eagerly await the tomatoes, blackberries, lemon cucumbers, beets and the blooming of our giant sunflowers. We will definitely be entering the Arkansas Grown School Garden Contest this year!

We have been waiting patiently for the first chick to hatch here at First Friends and today was the day! From pip to hatch was about 10 and a half hours.
Happy Birthday baby!
