Freedom to move is a large part of our curriculum. We create open space to work, as well as fine motor and gross motor indoor and outdoor activities for movement development.

Language and Math
Simple exposure to books, letters, words, numbers, groups, shapes, and counting is the foundation for understanding language and mathematics. Children are able to freely explore these topics in multiple ways around the classroom.
