Our goal is to provide opportunities for meaningful play that are based on the child's individual needs, interests and abilities which will build important foundations for future reading skills and other academic pursuits.
Parents' Comments
Parent #1
Being that our child is only 2 y.o. most activities are led by the teachers but they always allow, and encourage, individual approaches.
Parent #2
New music teacher is great. My children have been able to recognize all letters, count past 10 and are able to write nearly all the letters of the alphabet before they graduated from the program.

Being Savvy Today
On My Own
We met up with my father for a weekend in Grayton Beach, Florida . It was too short as the girls don't see nearly enough of their grandparents, but we packed it full of fun. We spent our last day on the beach
Montessori? Waldorf? Play-based?

Trace around your child's foot, with shoe on, on a piece of white construction paper or card stock. Have child cut out the shoe print and add a spooky face. Glue it to a popsicle stick and you have a ghost stick puppet!
