Philosophy

Adventures Preschool provides a safe and nurturing environment where teachers and families work as a team to offer developmentally appropriate learning opportunities for each child’s emotional, social, physical and cognitive growth. At Adventures Preschool we believe that children learn by being actively engaged, by playing, and by experiencing. Social skills, emotional development and language development are our primary focus. We feel that if children know how to make and be a friend, are self-confident, can ask for help when they need it, can express their feelings, can make decisions, have self-control, feel positive about school and curious about their world, they will have an excellent start. Although we do explore academic skills in our program, academic skills are not our main emphasis. We usually incorporate such learning in the form of games, songs, art, cooking, and conversation. We utilize developmentally appropriate activities and materials. Adventures Preschool believes situations requiring discipline can be dealt with through the use of active problem solving. Under the guidance of an adult, children are encouraged to use words to describe situations involving conflict, express their feelings and explore solutions jointly. Finally, Adventures Preschool believes that ALL children bring a unique component to the learning environment, which in turn, enriches the experience for all individuals involved. Objectives To provide a caring and stimulating learning environment for our preschoolers To meet the physical, emotional, social, and mental needs of our children To help parents develop a deeper understanding and appreciation of their preschool child.
