Little Sprouts Early Learning Center has open enrollment for 2015-216 going on now.
Looking for a nature based program for your 3-5 year old for next fall? Little Sprouts Early Learning Center is the perfect place!
Our Little Sprouts program is dedicated to bringing children and nature together. We offer the experiences typically found in child-centered learning centers; however, what is special about Little Sprouts is that these experiences are focused through daily interaction with nature, animals and plant life. Research has found that children who spend more time in nature pay attention better, think more clearly, and are able to cope more effectively with stress. The nature curriculum is based on seasonal changes. Topics reflect current events in the natural world and provide the basis for daily outdoor discovery plus:
- Creative arts
- Large & small motor skill development
- Natural science exploration
- Language experiences
- Math & manipulative activities
Little Sprouts is great for children whose families are looking for discovery-based learning. Natural themes and materials are incorporated throughout indoor and out door activities. We are located inside Pilcher Park Nature Center and are currently in our 5th year.
