A unique
program designed to create an environment that provides an abundance
of play and ongoing development by active learning. Curiosity is
encouraged, while self-direction and persistence are practiced.
Social skills, sharing, positive self-esteem, and friendship are key
areas of focus. Children
are encouraged to discover, explore, and learn new skills through
learning centers, activity zones, and discovery areas. These
enriching experiences fill children with pride and the desire to
learn more.
