- This child is put into a group situation.
- The child learns to listen and take directions from other adults besides the parents.
- The child learns to share toys as well as the time of the teacher.
- We offer the child creative art experiences, which include many varied experiences such as painting, finger-painting, gluing, pasting and cutting. When planning the art projects, we keep in mind the development level of the child. We hope from these experience the child will gain self-confidence and a good self-image because of his/her success. These experiences also help the child develop his/her fine muscles that are used for writing. Coordination is gained through these experiences. Please remember that your child is very proud of his/her artwork or creative project. The teachers try to encourage the children in everything they attempt to make. We do not compare one child's work to another's. Your encouragement is very important. Remember to tell your child how nice his/her work looks. This will contribute tremendously to his or her selfesteem in later life.
