Hello! Boy, what a fantastic summer! We had a lot of fun with your kiddos this summer! We hope the Summer of 2010 was one to remember for everyone!
There is a lot to talk about!! First, we are so excited for fall and the holiday season! We have new themes for this month and beyond that we are so excited about! We can’t wait to share them with the kids! Check out our calendar for specific dates and times!
A quick update on new locations! Lupine Lane will be offering Absolutely Art on Tuesdays from 3:45-4:45 and Kinder Cooks on Thursdays from 3:45-4:45 at the Abercorn International School in Lakeway! If you are looking for a fantastic preschool program for your child or know someone who is, this school is incredible! The diverse and enriching curriculum will definitely give kids a great education and expand their world perspective! (yes, even preschoolers!!) We are so excited to be working with Abercorn and look forward to classes there!
We will be offering once monthly classes at Miss Julie’s Learning Center!! Stay tuned for dates! We are so excited to continue our work with the lovely people at Miss Julie’s! Everyone there is so sweet and the kids there really develop a respect and kind regard toward people. It is fantastic to see little ones being so warm and caring to one another! Check out Miss Julie’s if you are looking to enroll your child!
We will also be back at Steiner Ranch beginning this month! We will be there on Fridays, offering Lil’ Absolutely Art, Lil’ Kinder Cooks and The After School Supper Club!
And of course, we will offer our usual classes at the Lakeway Activity Center and the Clay Madsen Recreation Center! We have moved the Drop Off Classes at the Lakeway Activity Center to start at 3:30 for those starting school!
We are also beginning to offer classes at various schools and daycare’s during the school day! For instance, we have conducted several art, cooking and music classes in schools with preschoolers, elementary and middle school age children! We would love to come to your child’s class! If your child attends a day care, and you are interested in Lupine Lane offering a class there, please contact Lauren at [email protected] or 512-565-1501!
In addition, we are here to help with your child’s birthday party, your fall festival, holiday party or any other event! We can provide customized, enriching activities for the kids and would love to help! Contact Lauren at [email protected] or 512-565-1501!
We would also like to introduce a couple of new classes to you all! We are going to begin offering Kid’s Night Out on select Friday nights from 6-11pm at the Lakeway Activity Center! This fun evening will allow the parents to hit the town while the kids have a ball! Check it out!
We will also begin to offer the Teen Supper Club, for kids 12 and up at the Lakeway Activity Center! This class was added to serve the older kids that love to cook! The kids will cook from a different country every month and bring home dinner for 4!
Now, on to our classes this month!
