THREE of the teachers awarded with TIA recognition are connected to Little Eagles--Mr. Parker (son of our beloved Mrs. Tangela), Mrs. Rodriguez (mom of past LE child), and Mrs. Caravano (LE mom)! So proud of all of you, for this prestigious honor. 👏 #RISDDreamBig

These toddlers are still fascinated by metamorphosis, so Ms. Carissa and Ms. Rownak continue incorporating caterpillars and butterflies into conversations and activities. Teach toward child interests—this is learning that sticks! 🩋 @RISDECS

Toucans combined "Work Together Wednesday" and "Artsy Thursday" by creating a robot using 100% recyclable materials! Each worked on different parts of their group's robot, then worked together to complete the whole body of the robot! #RISDDreamBig #WOYC26 #FutureEngineers

Process, Not Product 🎹🚗 Our FLC kiddos explored creativity with car track painting—using toy cars and paint to create one-of-a-kind masterpieces! Every creation is unique—and that’s the goal! 💛 #WOYC26 @RISDecs #RISDDreamBig @RISDFamCenter

Our toddlers at the RISD Family Center teamed up to build skyscrapers—exploring math and science concepts through play! From “over” and “under” to learning how to work side by side, these moments build both skills and connections. #WOYC26 @RISDecs #RISDDreamBig @RISDFamCenter

It’s Music Monday at Little Eagles CLA, as we celebrate #WOYC26 The Redbirds chose to sing đŸŽ¶ Happy BirthdayđŸŽ¶ to me (not my bday), while tapping out the beat with their shakers! They kept calling the shakers “tacos” due to the half-circle shape. 😂#RISDDreamBig

Big smiles, belly laughs, and a whole lot of splashing—first Splash Day of 2026! What looks like pure fun is also full of learning: dipping, scooping, pouring, spraying, and strengthening those growing bodies through play. This is how we #RISDDreamBig

I’m in denial my girl is leaving these wonderful humans. How lucky we have been ❀
Our first Wheels Day with the Toucans class was a joy! Tiny helmets, big smiles, and so much growing happening. With just two months left, we’re soaking in every moment. #RISDDreamBig

There’s nothing fancy here—and that’s the point. Water. Cereal-sand. Curious hands. When simple materials meet caring adults, something powerful unfolds: connection, discovery, real learning. This is where it all begins. #risddreambig

It was all about The Gingerbread Man at Little Mustangs this week! Gingerbread scented messy play, pretending to bake and actually making gingerbread. So fun!!! #RISDDreamBig ⁊@RISDecs⁩ #RISDcla ⁊@kristinleeper9⁩
