our seedling class often takes daily trips to the sweet little garden belonging to the T.R.R. Cobb House to play, they like to call it the "secret garden". It's such a treat to have such a historic treasure in our neighborhood and our little class has observed and talked a lot about the Cobb House while playing in its garden, often referring to it as the "pink house". They have found fig and pomegranate trees in its side garden, friendly faces waving from inside, & "swirly"glass in its windows. a recent window repair has even prompted a lot of curiousity about what the inside of the house looks like, so we reached out to their Program Director, Terrell Austin, to see if our Seedling Class could have an abbreviated tour of the house and to get a sneek peek at the window repair from the inside of the house. So on a recent Monday, we walked over for the tour......
field trip
we explore Ike & Jane cafe & bakery!
we recently launched a new program here at Arrow, called "Arrow Explores...". Through it we will be visiting local places of interest to do fun and unusual things....like mini field trips. To kick-off this series, we visited Ike & Jane Cafe & Bakery. We started things off with a great behind-the scenes tour from owner, Corie. She even let us all take a turn at rolling out dough! We got to decorate donut-shaped cookies, take home any leftovers in oven-shaped boxes & we all received our first stamp in our Arrow passports....it was a great trip. Thanks to Corie & Ike & Jane staff for hosting us, we had a great time!
We can't wait for our next trip! Stay tuned for details.....
we visit the Little Free Library!
our Seedling Class recently took a mini field trip to donate a new children's book to the new Little Free Library that was installed in our neighborhood right behind Avid Bookshop. we loved the tactile look & feel of the library crafted by Athens' own Cap Man, Jimmy Straehla, and we were delighted that it was almost too full to accept our book!
