Preschool Philosophy

Early Horizons believes in hands-on learning in all areas of curriculum. Children learn more from interacting with materials and the world around them than from adults trying to explain concepts to them. Play is life for young children. Play enables children to learn through curiosity invention and persistence. Childrens attention span is surprisingly long when they are interested in what they are working on. Play allows children to master basic skills without pressure. Play encourages problem solving. Our role is to set up an environment rich with materials that offer children the ability to play and learn. By interspersing adult directed activities with child initiated play we insure the development of the whole child.

Using play as the basis we have created the LifeStart curriculum: a unique developmental program that honors the whole child while providing developmentally appropriate activities for each age level. We have taken the latest in brain development research combined it with classic early childhood methods such as Piaget Montessori and R.I.E. and incorporated the NAEYC standards to develop this wonderful curriculum.
