We love math and we love Valentine`s Day (and we also love candy!), so this Estimation Math Task was a sweet combination! What do you think the serving size is for each type of candy? We`ll post the answers in the comments tomorrow.

Today our Unicorn Club members made friendship bracelets for themselves and their unicorn, talking about emotions and friendship along the way. Learning about feelings and emotions is more magical with unicorns. 💕🦄🙌
Think kids get excited about making slime? You should see how excited they get with glow-in-the-dark sparkle slime! Today we learned a little about chemical reactions and how they make glow sticks glow, we created sparkle slime with special containers given to us by Sparkle Council, and we created glow-in-the-dark paint by crushing highlighters. All things were aglow today at Sparkle Club. 🌟

✨🦄 Unicorn Adventure Alert! 🦄✨
Our Unicorn Club unicorns were spotted on a very important mission at A2Z Science & Learning Toy Store! Why? Because they’re getting ready for a BIG lesson coming up this Tuesday… 💫
The unicorns are learning all about what it means to be a good friend, and they wanted to make extra sure they did their homework before teaching their Unicorn Club members (aka their tiny human caregivers 😉). Naturally, they knew A2Z was the place to research kindness, sharing, listening, and teamwork!
.
Now the unicorns have questions for YOU:
🌈 What does being a good friend mean to you?
💖 How do you show kindness or care to others?
🦄 What should every unicorn know about friendship?
.
Drop your ideas in the comments and help the unicorns learn from you, too!
.
📣 Tiny human caregivers (not unicorn caregivers):
This was a pilot afterschool club created in partnership with High Five Books, and we’re so excited to share that new afterschool clubs starting in April will be announced on February 15th—stay tuned!
.
✨ Friendship, curiosity, and a little magic go a long way. ✨
