We believe in “hands-on” experiential learning. Our curriculum is published by High Reach Learning and
is written very intentionally to meet the social physical and emotional developmental needs of each age
group. Studies have shown that during the formative years of birth through age 5 children develop the
self-concept and basic social skills that will carry them throughout their entire lives. Therefore our primary
goal is to focus on development of social and emotional skills using hands-on activities and subjects which
are familiar to most children. During that process a wealth of other learning also takes place in the areas
of math and reading readiness problem solving and logical thinking language and cognitive
development gross and fine motor skills development and many other pre-academic areas. During
these preschool years it is more appropriate to say that the “children learn” rather than “we teach.”
Simply by virtue of being exposed to desired topics in fun and creative ways children will absorb new
knowledge at an amazing rate — and have fun at the same time.
