A Child's Place Day Care
OUR PROGRAMS:
At A Child's Place, we teach through play, and interactive activities
Our program runs like a classroom,
from one lesson to the next, but we use games and pretend play to teach your child the fundamentals of preschool and kindergarten.
Our lessons are fully interactive so your little one is never lectured at a desk. We teach your child about colors, shapes, letters, numbers, through play. We use fre play tim to help imporove problem solving and your chlid's social skills.
Some activites we do are imaginative play, sorting, matching, and building which encourage emotional and academic growth.
Enrichment Activities:
At A Child's Place, we realize that every child is different, and our goal is to keep our classrooms small, so we can personalize every child's experience.
We have lots of indoor room to run, and several "quiet" areas. We try to use a schedule, but children are encouraged to explore their individual preferences.
About our Garden and Trees:
The children get to bring home and try out a variety of organically grown fruits and veggies that they participate in growing themselves! We believe there is great importance to have some knowledge about agricultural care.
We have Apple, Plum, Pear and Peach Trees on site. We have started the growing season for our zucchini, yellow squash, peas, tomatoes, strawberries, beets and bell peppers. Our plants are all organically grown - without pesticides, or hormones for the safety of or children who wish to experience the garden.
