Weekly plan example

 Thank you for your interest in my kid’s fun program.  Children's first early experiences enrich and stimulate future growth.  Young children learn more (and faster) during the first 5 years of their life than over any other 5 year period.   It is an accepted fact that children acquire most of their learned development through play; exploring their environment; and observing the people around them.  Children need opportunities to be engaged in experiences that are relevant and meaningful to them.

Children's play is the essential component of a developmentally appropriate curriculum. Our main objective is to have fun, provide a positive approach to learning, enhance social skills and encourage creative expression. Children will be offered activities that stimulate sensory motor development, language skills, social interaction, and creativity, explore their environment, and the linking of concepts to real world experience.
