We can, <strong>at</strong> this young age,lay <strong>the</strong> groundwork for life longskills th<strong>at</strong> help children become successfuland happy adults.Theodore Roosevelt said, “The most important singleingredient in <strong>the</strong> formula of success is knowing how<strong>to</strong> get along with people.” Everything we do in NurserySchool is designed <strong>to</strong> teach both <strong>the</strong> heart and brain.When children roll balls back and forth <strong>to</strong> each o<strong>the</strong>r,<strong>the</strong>y become aware of cause and effect (basic physics).Play also teaches children p<strong>at</strong>ience (how <strong>to</strong> take turns),sharing and how <strong>to</strong> follow <strong>the</strong> rules of a game. When<strong>the</strong>y hum, twirl, and spin, p<strong>at</strong>terns for music, song,dance, reading and m<strong>at</strong>hem<strong>at</strong>ics are being laid down in<strong>the</strong>ir brains.

Teaching<strong>the</strong> heart and <strong>the</strong> brainare intertwined in every aspect of our curriculum, evenwhen it looks like simply playing!Our society puts such pressure on young children <strong>to</strong>achieve. My 25 years of experience in Early ChildhoodEduc<strong>at</strong>ion have taught me th<strong>at</strong> when you cre<strong>at</strong>e arelaxed, loving environment and put out a wide varietyof m<strong>at</strong>erials for children <strong>to</strong> explore, you cre<strong>at</strong>e an<strong>at</strong>mosphere for true learning. A neurologist/teacherwrote, “When students are engaged and motiv<strong>at</strong>ed andfeel minimal stress, inform<strong>at</strong>ion flows freely and <strong>the</strong>yachieve higher levels of cognition, make connections,and experience ‘aha’ moments. Such learning comes …from classrooms with an <strong>at</strong>mosphere of exuberant discovery.”Honor and enjoy this time in your child’s lifeby not hurrying it along.Our goal is <strong>to</strong> ensure th<strong>at</strong> <strong>the</strong> children in our schoolachieve trust and independence, initi<strong>at</strong>ive and belonging,competence and diligence and an awareness of <strong>the</strong>needs of o<strong>the</strong>rs. Success in life is <strong>the</strong> product of a goodheart and healthy personality.
