Quality Curriculum in Child Care Center | Bright Start Academy

Children grow so quickly!  It seems like that sweet, tiny newborn turns into an active, wild toddler in the blink of an eye.  The next thing you know, they’re walking into kindergarten, backpack on and growing like a weed!  Those first five or six years go by so fast and it seems like such a small window of time to fit in all of the learning that they need to prepare for school. When looking for a O’Fallon child care center, ensure that your child is in a program that can teach them what they need to know is the first step.

When you look at your baby, you may wonder why they would need to be in a child care center with a curriculum. After all, they’re happy playing peek-a-boo and sucking on their fingers!  But when you think about all of the changes a baby goes through in their first year, you realize that their brains are always working. They spend their days absorbing their environment. Using all of their senses, they are constantly thinking, learning, and even problem-solving their world! 

It’s important it is to take care of your baby’s needs, ensuring that they feels safe and loved. That sense of  security is the first building block to learning how to build positive and trusting relationships with others. And then you have a toddler and everything changes!  Toddlers are so busy, it’s a full time job just keeping up! They are constantly zooming around

Preschoolers have calmed down a little and are ready to learn, and show off their newly acquired skills. They are really start to grasp beginning reading and math concepts and building on them. Learning letters, numbers and shapes turns into writing letters and learning their sounds, as well as counting. Using manipulative, block play, sensory exploration, and pretend play, helps develop a great academic foundation. But even more than that, they are learning the social skills that they need to move onto their next stage of education. Skills like getting along with others, following a routine, waiting in line, and listening and following directions are essential to a smooth transition into school. With our curriculum, our preschoolers are on the path to success!
