A feelings chart is a tool to help children identify and express their emotions. 💞 Save this post to use this feelings chart daily with your family.

Start the day by having each member identify how they are feeling in the morning. Throughout the day, family members can change how they are feeling and identify it using the chart as needed. This will help to spark dialogue about feelings and how family members can help or celebrate with one another.

Some benefits of using a feelings chart at home:
- Gives children the opportunity to think about how they feel and learn how to communicate it
- Helps children develop emotional literacy
- Helps children find words for their feelings

The cozy corner offers a place for kids to take a break, helping them to identify and regain control of their emotions.

Congratulations to the entire Kiddie Academy of Whtie Plains team on earning our National Association for the Education of Young Children (NAEYC) accreditation —the world's largest organization working on behalf of young children!

This rigorous and transformative quality-improvement system uses a set of 10 research-based standards to collaborate with early education programs to recognize and drive quality-improvement in high-quality early learning environments. To earn accreditation, we engaged in an extensive self-study and quality-improvement process, followed by an on-site visit by NAEYC Assessors to verify and ensure that the program met each of the ten program standards, and hundreds of corresponding individual criteria.

In the 30 years since NAEYC Accreditation was established, it has become a widely recognized sign of high-quality early childhood education. More than 6,000 programs are currently accredited by NAEYC—less than 10 percent of all child care centers, preschools, and kindergartens nationally achieve this recognition. 

“NAEYC-Accredited programs have committed to a process that takes time, energy and dedication to complete” states Alissa Mwenelupembe, Senior Director Early Learning Program Accreditation. “Kiddie Academy of White Plains has demonstrated their commitment to young children and their families.”

Children at Academies around the nation are enjoying the summer weather with some outdoor playtime!

At Kiddie Academy®, we believe that learning occurs in and out of the classroom. Whether it's building forts from fallen branches, playing on the playground, or observing wildlife in its natural habitat, outdoor play provides children with a hands-on learning environment that ignites their imagination and sets the stage for academic success in years to come.

When it comes to instilling a love for our planet in children, literacy plays an important role.

Introducing young minds to engaging books about nature, animals, and conservation sparks their curiosity about the environment and empowers them to become responsible stewards of our Earth.🌱

A recent creative event organized by .gaithersburg is an excellent example of this. It beautifully demonstrated how to nurture both a love of reading and a respect for the world around us in future generations.
