Parents' Comments
Parent #1
The school has a schedule of activities throughout the day for both the infant and toddler room. The toddlers participate in yoga, arts and crafts, and time in the play ground. The infants are exposed to words and sounds through flash cards and posters. The structure is not rigid and encourages choices and free play while assisting in preparing children for transitions.
Parent #2
perfect balance of allowing children to learn in there own way with the right amount of instruction
