If you want your children to be intelligent, read them fairy tales. If you want them to be more intelligent, read them more fairy tales.

Arrival, free play on the playground and/or inside. This is a time for children to meet the day, with imagination and excitement to see friends. Exploration of the gardens and inside activities will reflect daily chores and common household tasks. The smell of home cooked food will greet them. There are opportunities for children to help with cooking along the way! |

Morning movement: this is the first ‘in-breath’. In class, our morning activities are painting, drawing, seasonal activity, music, games, dancing, movement, or yoga. |
