We believe that early childhood experiences can positively impact a child’s entire school career. Learning the social skills necessary to interact in a group promotes cooperation, as well as learning empathy and respect for others. Self awareness skills help children recognize their strengths and weaknesses, encourage creativity and problem solving, and develop stamina. Children play and through this play they learn new strategies and skills. It is these strategies and skills that are the foundation for their future learning. As teachers we create the environment that allows children to play creatively and investigate their world safely and with purpose.
