Northwoods Child Development Center
About Us
Learning through Play
We believe that play is the highest form of research. Our curriculum is designed around learning through play to help build confidence, resilience and curiosity. With our beautiful outdoor spaces we welcome nature to help guide our experiences and build a connection between the natural world and the children. Our aim is to grow their love for movement and healthy habits through our unique playgrounds, gardening programs and classroom settings.
Curriculum
"Where Learning and Fun are One" The philosophy behind our curriculum is that young children learn best by experiencing hand-on activities. We follow the Reggio Emilio approach to learning. Our teachers create and plan lessons to meet each child's developmental goals and objectives. We provide developmentally appropriate practices, daily for the children. Our childcare philosophy approach includes a variety of opportunities for our children to learn by experiencing concepts and ideas.
Within our classrooms, large and small group learning time includes songs, games, language development, dramatic play, fine and gross motor activities, and more.
