We believe that children learn through the experiences of the five senses (touching, tasting, seeing, hearing and smelling). As a result, our talented early childhood teachers lead their students through many different kinds of activities — we like to take a hands-on approach to our day. From exciting STEM activities that use Lego blocks (who doesn’t love Lego??) to a variety of fun sensory activities, we have plenty of ways to engage kids and help them learn about their world.

Not only is our indoor learning environment stocked with a variety of high quality learning aids and toys, but we spend a lot of time outdoors, too! Our preschoolers have access to a fenced-in outdoor play area, sand and water tables, a garden, and our classes frequently take walks. We have plenty of indoor activities as well, with classes like yoga, music and movement, and physical education classes that help kids develop their balance and hand-eye coordination.

When the weather is warmer, our students can also try their hand at gardening in our vegetable garden! It’s exciting for preschool students when they can watch their vegetables grow from seeds or seedlings, and then pick them and help to prepare them. In this way, we are able to teach children concepts of science, nutrition, cooking and the environment, all at the same time. (Kids are also more likely to try new foods and healthy vegetables when they are involved in food preparation and cooking!)

We reinforce our commitment to healthy eating with two snacks a day and lunch.
