Rockin' Kindergarten for over 30 years!

Hello Spring!

The first day of spring is just around the corner.  Looking for a fun way to add some color to your classroom and celebrate the changing season?  These beautiful hyacinths come to us from the Art Exhibit at the 2018 California Kindergarten Conference.  A big thanks to Cathy Doll from San Ramon Valley USD for sharing this great idea!  She used corks, paint and crayons to create these beautiful hyacinths.
