We provide new fun themes for each unit every two weeks. All units include play-based learning, healthy body movement like yoga and dancing, themed stories, songs, art projects, sensory exploration, and sign language. Throughout the year we work on social emotional skills including sharing, teamwork, expanding our emotional vocabularies and independent problem solving. We work on age-appropriate school readiness skills including tracing names, cutting with scissors, rhyming, patterns, comprehension questions, raising our hands, as well as number & letter identification. Most importantly we PLAY, we teach KINDNESS, and we truly nurture a love of NATURE!
