Our Kindergarten Program

Comprehensive curriculum preparing children for school success

Our center develops expectations and practices in concert with our state curriculum standards so children make an easy transition into the local school system. At the same time, our curriculum builds off the child’s knowledge base and skills, learning style, and interests. There is a clear emphasis on the development of strong language, math, and science skills. Important “school skills” of listening carefully, following through on a sequence of tasks, and working cooperatively are reinforced.

Scarf Play

You Will Need:

One or two scarves of different textures and colors

Directions:

While your baby is happy and playful, lay him on his back on the floor or bed and stand or sit next to him. Take one of the scarves and wave it over your baby’s body. Hold the scarf over the baby within his reach and encourage him to reach up for it. Also hold it off to the side and see if he can turn his body toward it. “Where’s Mary? Peek-a-boo, there you are. Whee, it’s soft. Can you reach it? Stretch, that’s it. Yeah.”

Tip:

Let your baby get used to the feel of the scarf before you put it over his face and pick up on his cues if he doesn’t seem to like it over his face. If he’s not interested in peek-a-boo continue holding it over his body instead.
