Class Descriptions
Toddler Program
Our Toddler Program was developed for children to create opportunities for
confidence building, developing trust, language development, motor skills
and social growth.

The two day per week, 2 hour program provides a wonderful, nurturing
environment. In the 2's program we provide experiences which stimulate all
the senses. We have a ratio of three teachers to twelve Toddlers, in order to
meet each child's needs.

Our Toddler's are given the freedom to explore developmentally appropriate
activities inside and outside in our rural setting.

Children in our 2's program do not need to be potty trained.
Parents and caregivers are expected to be available in the trust building
process. They are also asked to participate in the closing circle time.
3's & 4/5's Programs
Our curriculum for children in the 3 year and 4/5 year olds classes is
designed to help children understand, appreciate and live in their total
environment, providing a solid foundation for later school experiences.  We
attempt to find a balance of directed and creative, physical and intellectual
experiences for each child.

Teachers work with the children to foster their emotional growth and social
skills.  Children are encouraged to talk with each other, express their needs
and frustration and discover ways to solve their conflicts in socially
acceptable ways.

The interests of the children are incorporated in developing unit themes
which include many curriculum areas including Science and Music.
