"Learning through play" is an excellent philosophy that encourages learning. Children learn best by interacting with their environment, through experimenting, singing, measuring, talking, tasting, painting, dancing, etc.
Every child is inherently worthy of love. Behavioral strategies include: positive reinforcement, clear boundaries, immediate consequences, following through, and starting each day fresh and new.
Cooperation, respect for others, kindness and communication are emphasized. No violent toys or war toys are at Little Bears Daycare.
Activities and Circle Time themes include: identifying and playing musical instruments, life cycles of plants and animals, family relationships, body awareness, earth awareness (recycling, composting, gardening), community helpers, safety (being lost, seat belts, poisons), and many more. In addition to art and cooking projects, and games.
There are four classrooms, including a full sized gym, exclusively for the daycare. The rooms are divided into areas for for the different age groups.
Each classroom is broken up into different play areas, such as
house-keeping, blocks/puzzles, art/books, listening, dancing and playing music.
Little Bears Day Care has child-sized tables and chairs for snacks, breakfast and lunches. We provide breakfast and two snacks (one in the morning, the other in the afternoon). Lunch is provided by the parent or guardian. We have a refrigerator and microwave are available.
The outside play area is exclusively for the daycare; In addition we take frequent trips to the local park. Permission slips signed by the parent or legal guardian are required for ALL field trips, including the park.
