Documentation is used to see, reflect and revisit ideas, feelings and experiences. Visual arts (the hundred languages of children such as art, dramatics music, etc) are used to have children express themselves and learn.

A child’s work is play. Through play children develop coordination, verbalization, thoughts and expressions, establish friendships, become creative and feel a sense of self esteem. Our program hopes to encourage discovery, exploration, and the love of learning in children. The individuality of each child is important to us. We hope to provide an enriching environment where children grow in a caring, safe, stimualting and fun atmosphere. The child care center has been exploring the Reggio Emilia Approach where we respect the child and feel he/she is capable and ready to learn and socialize.
