Creative Play Center is a co-operative preschool and Pre-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! |
