Play-Based Curriculum
Broadening Horizons Through Play

Play-Based Curriculum: The Heart of Exploration

Our curriculum is built around the power of play-based learning, where every activity is designed to foster cognitive development, social skills, and emotional growth.

We encourage all types of play.

  • Imaginative play - sparks creativity and problem-solving
  • Physical games - enhance motor skills and teamwork
  • Creative exploration - encourages self-expression

This dynamic environment makes our center a reliable source for families seeking a play-based preschool, where education is as enjoyable as it is effective.

Broadening Horizons Through Play

Beyond the foundational play-based curriculum, Kids Garden offers a variety of enrichment classes that further expand the horizons of our young learners. Whether art, music, science, or language, our programs are infused with the same spirit of play, allowing children to delve deeper into their interests and passions.

Play-based learning involves the following elements:

  • Self-elected - The child chooses when, how, and what to play. Adults can guide the children, but true play-based education is based on the desires of the child.
  • Fun - Play is a fun, enjoyable experience for children. While they may experience some frustrations (which is often where learning occurs!), the overall experience is joyful.
  • Unstructured - True play-based learning is unstructured, allowing children to make their own discoveries as they explore the environment on their own terms.
  • Play-centric - There is no end goal with play-based learning. The play is the work!
  • Imaginative - Play is centered around imagination, creativity, and self-expression.

These enrichment opportunities complement our core curriculum and prove our commitment to providing a holistic, play-centered educational experience.
