“Nurturing Curiosity” with a Play Based Curriculum
“When you ask me what I’ve done at school today, and I say, “I just played”, Please don’t misunderstand me. For me you see, I’m learning as I play. I’m learning to enjoy and be successful in my work. I’m preparing for tomorrow. Today, I am a child and my work is play.” –Anita Wadley

Nurturing Curiosity
Philosophy of Daycare
- Our Play Based Curriculum
-
- The Learn and Play system gets children excited about learning through activities that reward curiosity and games that promote cooperation and focus. Children learn best when children are having fun playing.
- The Learn and Play curriculum aims to meet the varying touchstones of each developmental stage, while simultaneously maintaining flexibility regarding each individual child’s needs.
- Children participate in art, science, music, dramatic play, social studies, reading, writing, math, computers and multicultural activities.
- Familiarizing children with technological tools is essential to the world we live in today and it is mainstay of our program. Through lessons, projects, and guided exploration of the computer and its educational possibilities, Learn and Play children (ages 2 and up) are introduced to basic computer applications and state of art learning games that expand a child’s creative and intellectual domain.
- Our Teachers
-
- Learn and Play teachers are dedicated trained professionals who believe that by creating a warm, fun, and nurturing environment, a child’s innate curiosity and creativity can inspire and propel his/her education.
- Our experienced teachers work cooperatively to organize and implement fun activities that will enhance a child’s language skills, social skills, self-help skills, cognitive skills, fine/gross motor skills and most importantly, that will help develop great self esteem.
- Teachers are First Aid and CPR Certified and meet state education and experience qualification requirements.
