WE HAVE A WINNER!
Our first King Cake goes to Christiana Warmerdam!
We'll have that shipped off from Joe Gambino's Bakery tomorrow!
We'll do it again four more Tuesdays before Mardi Gras, so get your tickets — or more tickets! #hilltopchildrenshouse #montessori #montessorieducation #catechesisofthegoodshepherd #fundrsiser #raffle #kingcake #mardigras #supporteducation #helpingchildren #give #steubenville #steubenvilleohio
Each year we host a Mardi Gras Gala to raise funds for our programming. But this year, with the pandemic, that’s just not possible. So, we’re hosting an online Mardi Gras raffle instead.
Each Tuesday from now until Mardi Gras we’ll draw one ticket to have a king cake shipped from New Orleans. And on Mardi Gras itself we’ll pull winners of a variety of different prizes, with a grand prize of $500!
Tickets start at just $10 and can be bought at our website (link in bio). Thank you for supporting the work of Hilltop Children’s House!

Merry Christmas to everyone from Miss Noelle, Miss Sara, the kids of Hilltop Children's House, and Macy!
The mother of one of our children came by toward the end of the day a couple of weeks ago to take photos as we gathered around the prayer table.
You can see more of her excellent work at @lauraandmatthewphoto and see more photos from the photo shoot on our website.

Mother Nature provided us with some great practical life activities today. Perfect way to head into Christmas break! ❄️ ❄️ ❄️ #hilltopchildrenshouse #montessori #montessorilearning #montessoriclassroom #montessorieducation #practicallifeskills #practicallife #snow #snowshoveling #catholicmontessori #steubenville #steubenvilleohio
One of the beautiful things about Montessori education is how the children interact and learn from each other. In this case one 3 year old noticed that another 3 year old wasn’t rolling her rug correctly. So, she called her over to demonstrate ❤️ #hilltopchildrenshouse #montessori #montessorilearning #montessoriclassroom #catholicmontessori #3yearsold #theyretoocute #steubenville #steubenvilleohio
When the Advent wreath falls on the floor everyone has to get in on fixing it! #hilltopchildrenshouse #montessori #montessorilearning #montessoriclassroom #cgs #catechesisofthegoodshepherd #advent #adventwreath #3candles #cooperation #steubenville #steubenvilleohio
It’s a big work to put all the states in the correct place! #hilltopchildrenshouse #puzzlemap #montessori #montessorilearning #montessoriclassroom #unitedstates #allthestates #ohio #catholicmontessori #steubenville #steubenvilleohio
Sometimes the children just need 45 minutes of walking on the line before they’re ready for work! #hilltopchildrenshouse #montessori #catholicmontessori #montessorilearning #montessoriclassroom #montessorimovement #controlofmovement #walkingontheline #steubenville #steubenvilleohio
Alleluia is a favorite song to sing whenever candles are lit in our classroom. #hilltopchildrenshouse #montessori #montessorilearning #montessoriclassroom #cgs #catechesisofthegoodshepherd #altar #alleluia #catholicmontessori #steubenville #steubenvilleohio
We’re off today as we celebrate the Solemnity of the Immaculate Conception, but here’s a fun moment from a few days ago. A couple of 3 year olds discussing this Pink Tower build. I don’t know know exactly what she was telling him, but I know it was something about 2 cubes. Getting to witness interactions like these are what makes this work so rewarding! ❤️ #hilltopchildrenshouse #montessori #montessoriclassroom #montessorilearning #pinktower #sensorial #3yearsold #immaculateconception #holyday #steubenville #steubenvilleohio
The Binomial Cube. To 3-year-olds it’s just a puzzle. Little does he know he’s laying the foundation for algebra when he’s a little older. #hilltopchildrenshouse #montessori #montessorilearning #montessoriclassroom #sensorial #binomial #binomialcube #algebra #catholicmontessori #steubenville #steubenvilleohio
