We are so pleased to announce our winter You and Me Toddler Program at Manhattan Beach Nursery School!  Toddler Group is a lovely opportunity for walking toddlers and their loved adult to explore our dynamic school in the company of other toddlers and our experienced teacher Kate.  Kate will have age-appropriate fine and gross motor activities for the children to explore at their own pace and will be available to help support social growth amongst peers.  

Toddler Group will run 8 Fridays from 10:30-noon.  Tuition is $224.  We want all of our programs to be accessible to all regardless of financial circumstances, so please let our director Carol know if you need to work out an alternate arrangement.  Please see dates below:

January 10th, January 17th, January 24th, January 31st, February 7, February 14th, February 21st, February 28th

If you are interested in enrolling, please print, fill out, and submit a Membership Application along with the $45 processing fee and class tuition to MBNS (1520 Nelson Ave, Manhattan Beach 90266).   

Our Holiday Pop-Up Shop and Makers’ Faire will continue for one week online. Again, this is a great opportunity to get some holiday shopping done *and* support your school, with partial proceeds going to MBNS. Sale will end on Sunday, November 24, 2019, at 6pm. (Websites may not represent all that is available for purchase; for most complete information, contact vendors.)

Thank you for considering supporting our school! Each of our fundraisers helps keeps our school beautiful and functional, our wonderful teachers compensated, and supports our never-ending need for more rainbow tape, paint, and paper. 

Today’s the day! HARVEST FESTIVAL 2019, 2-6pm!

Come decorate pumpkins; enter the raffle drawing for fresh, local harvest bounty; watch live acts (musical, magical); gobble homemade goodies; pet the bunnies; enjoy apple cider tasting 🍏🍎; get your face painted ; play games; and MORE!

Summer is upon us, and what a year it has been, of witnessing the children create, make, build, knock down, pulley, swing, lift, drop, climb up, climb down, slide, tie rope, tie fabric, put on, take off, run, skip, whisper, yell, smell, taste, serve, share, hold space, squish, smash, wash, brush, paint, pour, fill, rinse, draw, apply, attach, sprinkle, dig, rake, sweep, gather, sing, read, tape, glue, cut, draw, write, get muddy, get wet, get dry, get muddy (again), climb, stack, push, choose, invite, ask why and what and how, explain, grow, play, learn, change.

This week is the last week of school. This week eight bright souls will be graduating to the next stage of their education; we will always remember them.

To the current community and prospective families, we offer summer sessions in July and August. For more information, contact mbns.membership@gmail.com.

Have you checked out our whimsical “Kid Talk” page? In the yards and halls, we so often are tickled to be privy to the fresh ways the children see their world and express themselves.

(Currently enrolled families: we’re always collecting these gems! E-mail them to us, please.)
