About Us
OUR PHILOSOPHY
Our goal is to encourage independence by providing a supportive,loving,and caring atmosphere
through play with an emphasis on nature and art- in other words, let children be children
"Almost all creativity involves purposeful play"- Abraham Maslow
Art
Our Art Stuio is the perfect place to encourage children's creativity and ability to get messy! The children have free range of the room to paint,including the floor, walls, and their bodies.
Benefits: The unrestricted exploration allows for children to grow socially, cognitively, emotionally, and physically.
Play-Based Learning
It's crucial that from an early age, children are able to discover their own interests by imagining, exploring, and investigating. This is why our program is centered around Weekly Themes that peak the children's interest.
Examples: Weekly Theme of science, dinosaurs, and colors
Benefits: Learning through play helps children develop social and emotional skills,learn abilities and limitations, broaden imagination, and expand on vocabulary.
Nature- Inspired Play
The children spend the majority of their waking hours at the park, community garden, or in our outdoor classrom. rain or shine.
We eat outside, play outside,read outside, paint outside, and most importantly-we get messy and have fun outside!
Benefits: Children are encouraged to explore and learn in a natural environment with the help of their 5 senses.
