8-10 Donuts with Dad
8:15 – 9:05 am
Join us for Donuts with Dad, the first of our annual family‑connection mornings—because even a simple shared moment over a donut and coffee before preschool helps boost early language, social-emotional skills, self-regulation, and school readiness by fostering familial involvement.
Dads come in early to grab your coffee and donuts with your student and share a special moment before drop off. Mom’s or grandparent can come in place to represent Dad.

13 Operation Christmas Child Collections Begin
From October 14 – November 10, we’re collecting items for shoeboxes to bless children in need around the world. Each child only receives one shoebox in their lifetime; every donation is a tangible example of Christ’s love. To keep it simple, consider bringing several of one or two items. Drop off donations at Busy Bee anytime during collection dates. Donations are accepted in lieu of volunteer hours ($15 value per hour).
For suggested items, visit our Sign Up Genius here. Packing parties will follow on Nov 12 & 13 with free childcare—donations and participation are welcomed but not required.

Rachel will help us better understand what it means to be a neurodiverse learner, why behaviors often communicate underlying needs, and how we can respond with empathy and intentional strategies. She’ll share insight into the social and emotional differences you may notice, along with practical strategies that help kids feel understood and equipped to succeed.
Attendees receive complimentary child care/ lunch bunch, drop off at the nursery. Please send a lunch for your child.
