Today, a group of very important fairy parents entered the realm. 🧚✨
They passed through the portal. They searched the Little Free Library for their fairies hiding inside. They adopted them, named them (favorites include Shrimp Crack Heart — yes, really), and registered them officially in the Fairy Registry.
.
They crafted bracelets for their new fairies — until one very important kid pointed out: “But they don’t have arms yet.”🫶
.
Fair point. Noted. Bracelets adjusted.
.
And our fairies? They don’t have wings yet either. Those are earned. Over 10 weeks of Fairy Club, our fairy parents will find the magic within — and at our very last session, their fairies will finally fly. 🌿
.
We are not okay. This group is everything. 💛

They walked in. A goddess in a toga handed them a laurel wreath. ✨ They found their seat by the campfire, received their book and their sacred scroll, and became — officially — mythmakers. 🏛️
.
Yesterday’s Mythology Club dove into oral storytelling from cultures around the world, explored the magic of constellations, and each camper made their very own constellation in a bottle — a reminder of the joy, magic, and stories they already carry inside them. 🌟
.
We are obsessed with this group.
.
A few spots remain in Mythology Club — 10 sessions, Mondays 3:30–5 PM. And Fairy Club kicks off TODAY, Tuesdays at 3:30 — also a few spots left! 🧚
.
Both clubs are teacher-led, small group, and genuinely unlike anything else after school. 👉 Link in bio to grab a spot!

She studied. She prepared. She absolutely stole the show. 🦄✨

Sparkles Junior, our resident disco unicorn, made her television debut on WWLP News Channel 22 Mass Appeal this morning — and she did NOT disappoint. Topics covered: what unicorns eat, what unicorn poop looks like (🌈 spoiler: rainbows), and why YOU need to be at High Five Books on April 9th for our FREE National Unicorn Day Celebration. Full video coming soon. We are not okay. 🫧

Does your child flip their numbers or letters? You are not alone — and there`s a really fun fix. 🖐️✨ Wikki Stix + a little song goes a long way. We meet every learner exactly where they are and make the journey joyful. Big love to our amazing tutor and expert teacher extraordinaire, Jan S., for letting us capture this learning moment. #TheCommunityClassroom #TutoringWithHeart #EveryLearner #tutoringcenter #tutoringservices #tutors #tutor #mathtutoring #mathtutors
This is what happens when you hand kids a pile of “recyclables” and a certified teacher with a plan. ♻️✂️✨ Handmade paper. Upcycled art. Mending skills. Big ideas. Our Creative Makers Camp proved today that sustainability and creativity are the most natural pair. Next up: Spring Egg-Stravaganza, May 6! 🥚 #TheCommunityClassroom #HandsOnLearning #GreenKids @high_five_books
