The Bikes are Out!

By WES Preschool - April 19, 2022

The Bikes are Out! What a beautiful day we had yesterday! Aside from nap time, we spent the entire day outside. The highlight of the day was riding the bikes around our path. We saw smiles on everyone's face as they zoomed around and around our path. There was a huge sense of accomplishment for each of the students as they pedaled the tricycles or pushed the balance bikes up the "hill" and around the loop.
