Century Daycare and OSC

Every year we ask families and local businesses, and the community to take part in donating used or new winter clothing. All donations will be delivered to the Coat for Kids and family’s charity! Please see the attached poster for more details!

Every donation makes a difference!

‼️NO COATS IN THE CAR SEAT ‼️

Although the harness seems tight with the coat on, the padding inside would compress in a crash which would leave the harness dangerously loose on the child.
A loose harness can result in the child’s arms and shoulders slipping out and the child being thrown out of the seat.

It’s also a major overheating risk since children get quite warm in the car seat anyways, add in the heating in the car plus a puffy coat/snowsuit? Far too hot.

*PLEASE NOTE THIS APPLIES TO ALL TYPES OF SEAT INCLUDING HIGH BOOSTERS USING THE ADULT SEATBELT. and even adults shouldn’t wear puffy coats with their seatbelt as the same compression would happen, leaving the seatbelt loose and you are at risk of worse injuries.

Here are a few reasons why we encourage children to engage in sand play:

1. Children learn how to socialize and work together
2. Children work on their gross motor development
3. Children are introduced to science and mathematical skills

Relationships early in life help children to connect with others, build positive friendships and support children to self-regulate their emotions.

Creative experience of placing open- ended resources together on a surface to create their own work of art! ~~~OSC Program~~~

The educators give the toddlers many opportunities when it comes to creativity. The toddlers get truly involved when it comes to painting!....usually ends up with them painting themselves!....

Luckily, they haven't painted eachother!...🤣

Join us in our Open House Sunday, September 24th from 10:00 AM to 3:00 PM!

Loose parts, natural materials and outdoor experiences encourage open - ended learning. Open ended materials, environments, and experiences encourage problem solving and are child centered. Children involve themselves in the learning experiences using loose parts, which lead to exploration and creativity.

Century Daycare and OSC located in Spruce Grove is currently accepting registrations for children 12 months to 12 years of age starting now!

The center is focused on the Flight Curriculum. Children’s play is central to this curriculum framework as an active, exploratory, creative, expressive process, deeply embedded in children’s everyday experiences and through which children participate in, learn about, and actively make sense of their world. We are aiming towards providing children with a variety of loose parts, natural materials to spark the children’s imagination, creativity, and to provoke them with countless hours of exploration.

We focus on social, physical, intellectual, creative, and emotional development through our programming. The program is based on interest based activities through daily observations.

The program currently offers 3 nutritious snacks per day to accommodate the early drop - off.

We take pride in providing a safe, secure environment and are committed to providing high quality care.

Please contact the center and ask for April for further information about each program either by phone @ 780-571-1818, email [email protected], or send me a private facebook message.

We look forward to hearing from you!

Recycled materials can inspire imagination by offering children opportunities to explore and create new forms of art, buildings, and designs.

Century gives the children the ability to explore in many different ways through risky play, loose and natural materials, and bringing their creativity outside!
