Programs

Play is the highest form of research.

Learning Through Play

Most experts in play research believe that a balanced approach is best. There should be good opportunities for genuine free play. Also, there should be some active involvement of adults in structuring some play, as in play tutoring. And, increasingly, as children get older, there is a need for direct instruction. The balance between types of play is a matter of continuing debate. As all types of play provide different opportunities, a blended program in preschool, with plenty of opportunities for free and structured play, is likely to be best for children and to provide them with a happy and stimulating environment in which they can flourish.

Fun with Food

Sunshine Circle Childcare loves food! We love learning, cooking, and experimenting with food. Teaching children at a young age about how/where/when food is grown, and where/ how it is prepared, gives them a basis for healthy eating habits as an adult! We want children to grow well, and have a well versed knowledge of different foods. We also want children to expand their tastes! When doing things with food, we always take a sanitary and safe approach. We take into consideration any food allergies/sensitivities, and religious beliefs.

Help us Teach
We want to know about you! We want to know about your heritage! What are your favorite things to do as a family? What are your traditions? Where did your ancestors come from?
America is made up of many types of people, and we want to teach our children and yours about as many different cultures and families as we can! With your help, we can make this happen! Keep and eye out on the calendar, or talk to me after hours, and we can set up a time to have you speak about your culture, or you can send your family favorite book to read on the designated days! If you give us a heads up before the designated "Culture day", then I can plan some fun activities to do with the children!
