What seems like a mess initially is evidence of play and learning.

We require a change of clothes daily for these reasons.

WONDER. CURIOSITY. CAPABILITY.
The pleasure of learning, of knowing, and of understanding is one of the most important and basic feelings that every child expects from the experiences *they confront alone, with other children, or with adults. It is a crucial feeling which must be reinforced so that the pleasure survives even when reality may prove that learning, knowing, and understanding involve difficulty and effort. It is in this very capacity for survival that pleasure is transformed into pure joy.
–Loris Malaguzzi

We are all in a constant state of learning in childcare and if you are a parent, teacher or community member we encourage you to join NAREA as an advocate and learn more about Reggio inspired learning.

We hope everyone enjoyed the snow day!

Although we closed due to inclement weather, our Admin team offered support to a few families!

Fun things to do in times like this include creating snow sensory experiments, looking for animal tracks, observing and journaling or drawing nature photos, placing loose parts in snow, or creating dough snowballs. And of course don't forget about reading or listening to A Snowy Day by Ezra Jack Keats! Or, simply relax!

Please stay warm and safe everyone!

While infants won't be actively using Spanish flashcards in the same way an older child might, early and consistent exposure to a second language, even through simple flashcard activities, offers several developmental advantages.

Visual and Auditory Stimulation: Flashcards with bright colors and clear images capture an infant's attention and engage their visual senses. When combined with the caregiver clearly speaking the Spanish word for the image, it creates a powerful sensory experience.

Building Brain Connections: Infants' brains are incredibly adaptable, forming connections that lay the foundation for future language and cognitive skills. Early exposure to Spanish, even in a passive way, can help build and strengthen neural pathways related to language processing.

Pre-Language Awareness: Infants are remarkably attuned to the sounds and rhythms of language. Introducing Spanish words through flashcards, even if they don't yet understand the meaning, can help them distinguish between phonetic sounds and recognize different speech patterns, laying groundwork for future language learning.

"Our preschoolers are exploring the concept of symmetry through art. These playful investigations not only build early math and observation skills but also nurture creativity and a deeper appreciation for the natural world."

Absolutely! When you can walk in the door knowing that the children you get to see everyday will make everything better, you have found your calling.....
