✨Stone Soup✨

Each year, Teddy Bear Daycare & Preschool students focus for nearly a month on the tradition of giving, family, community, thankfulness, and friendship. The Stone Soup tradition started many years ago, from the owner and founder Beth, as a way for each child to come together and create a delicious soup as a community. Children choose an ingredient to bring into school; from there we wash, cut and chop, and together create a yummy vegetable and chicken soup for the students to share together. We look forward to the month of November each year, as this is such a special tradition for our school!
