  • Paper Airplane Launching

    We’ve been looking into all things that fly… so why not test out our flying skills! We decorated paper airplanes with paint and them took outside for a spin! Some of the early 3’s even figured out that by getting on top of the slide, they  could throw their plane even farther!

  • Gears Gears Gears

    The manipulative center provides children with interesting materials to explore. Exploration is essential to the development of mathematical and logical thinking.  Gears along with other manipulatives in our center allow children to refine hand-eye coordination and visual perception.  Stacking, fitting connecting, stringing, comparing, matching, sorting, sequencing, building, classifying, persisting at tasks, turning knobs-children continue to build basic skills through manipulative play.  Children also learn to think logically, understand cause and effect, recognize shapes, and predict outcomes as they manipulate toys from this center.

    But let’s not leave out the FUN!
