Children working with play dough. They make it from scratch and take pride in all they create with it. Play dough is great for building bilateral integration, fine motor skills, sensory input, core and upper body fine movement skills, imagination, and sharing skills.

Our Rhythm

Children thrive in a strong rhythm. In a world that is often hectic and unpredictable, giving a child a rhythm to depend on is the foundation of security, wellness, and optimal development. Ms. Stacie

Children help prepare the snack, set the table, serve one another, and clean up. Snacking together builds community, and eating at a table provides opportunities for children to cross the midline, hone group communication skills, and it strengthens physical skills necessary for later desk work.
