Description of Activities:
Children's House staff understands that it is through play and exploration and personal relationships that children will develop their understanding of the world around them. They adapt their activities based on observations of children's interests and their developmental progress. The group environment is designed so that children learn through active exploration and interaction.
Daily Schedule:
Daily activities include a variety of active and quiet individual and group projects. A typical day may consist of any of the following: free play, large and small group stories and activities, art or craft projects, dramatic play, sand or water play, blocks, books, games, puzzles, playground/gross motor time, and use of language software and computers. Curriculum activities are designed to balance active and quiet play.
Children learn to participate as a member of a group during circle time discussions, story time, and music. They work both alone and in small groups while staff facilitate children's interactions with each other and their environments.
