| Description/Philosophy: | 
|
| Creative Play Center is a co-operative preschool and Developmental Kindergarten owned and operated physically and financially by all currently enrolled member families. Our philosophy is learning through play. Parents work in the classroom 3-4 times a month at stations: creative, blocks and pretend, curiosity, stegel (a unique indoor gym), outside, or snack. With their involvement, parents have an opportunity to observe and participate in their child's development of social, emotional, intellectual, and physical skills. Our main goal is the development of a child's positive self-esteem while offering the opportunity to explore the world in a safe environment. Your child will participate in two daily circle times, put on plays, learn songs, make friends, and have LOTS of FUN! |
