Happy Holidays from Kiddie Academy! ❤️🎁
This season of giving, we are happy to bring our values to life by supporting our communities.❤️
A tremendous THANK YOU to Kiddie Academy Corporate for the recent $2K grant award in support of our direct service programs –- Homeownership & Build (including Habi-Tech), Repair, and Financial Literacy! Thank you for supporting decent, affordable shelter, and for helping to provide families with a place to gather and grow!
Here's what Kiddie Academy told us:
As part of our corporate grantmaking process, we aim to support children and families throughout the communities we serve. We are excited to support Habitat for Humanity Susquehanna’s mission and look forward to more ways to work together towards a common goal of brighter futures for children.
We’re always looking for like-minded nonprofit organizations that can help us bring our values to life. Community Essentials ® is how the Kiddie Academy ® brand makes corporate social responsibility real and dynamic. It’s a part of our Life Essentials® philosophy and takes the character development we nurture in our Academies beyond the walls of the classroom. It’s how we work together towards the greater good.
Make memories this holiday season by engaging your child in activities that will encourage skill building. Here are four activities that will subtly activate physical, emotional and cognitive development.
Kid-Friendly Activities to Celebrate the Holidays Seeing the holidays through the eyes of a child is a remarkable experience. Children take extra delight in twinkling lights, festive songs and stories, and the excitement in the air.
Tummy time is an important part of infant development as it is essential in strengthening the neck and shoulder muscles. This movement prepares your little one for future gross motor skills down the road like sitting and crawling.

We hope everyone had a wonderful Thanksgiving! We are so grateful for our Kiddie Academy community.💛

“In a world where you can be anything, be kind.”
It is likely that kids encounter many veterans on a regular basis without realizing it. Inspire your children with what it means to be a veteran, and the symbols, songs and pledges that define American patriotism. Veterans are people who served in the military valiantly, and in a very big way. They fight to protect you and me, to keep our nation safe, and to preserve our way of life. Thank you to all the veterans that have served our country!
This , Kiddie Academy is proud to honor those who have served and continue to serve our country, including the many military families in the Kiddie Academy community. Thank you for your service and sacrifice.❤️

We are so grateful to our generous families, staff, and students who donated time and resources to a worthy organization. We plan to make this an annual fundraiser and hope to grow with each passing year.”

Our infant and toddlers spend the day with warm, mature caregivers who understand the developmental stages of young children. They encourage each child's individual growth while providing parents with guidance as they work to achieve important milestones. The children communication with sign language reducing frustration levels while their verbal skills emerge.
Our terrific twos enjoy a balance of nurturing and fun while exploring educational concepts. Large group instruction is introduced in playful ways that allow the children to learn to communicate, cooperate and share. Alphabet, color and shape recognition as well as calendar concepts are mastered during this year...and let's not forget about potty training.
Our preschool and pre-kindergarten students are lead by a bachelor- or master-degreed teacher who has all of the tools needed to deliver the highest level of learning. Children sing songs about the sounds letters make, strengthen their fine-motor muscles to allow for neat handwriting, explore math concepts in everyday applications, participate in science experiments and discovery, and so much more. Every child receives small group computer instruction on a weekly basis.
You'll be amazed how our top-notch language arts program delivers on its promise to grow exceptional readers. The children also explore, manipulate and investigate math concepts and apply them to everyday uses.
Our School Age students enjoy before and after care inclusive of delayed openings and early releases. An afternoon snack is provided each day while a hot lunch is provided on early release days. Daily homework help is also available. Care is offered on the many days school is closed.
