A Caring and comprehensive approach to the Education and Development of a Smarty Pants Pre-School Child

Its proven the higher quality of child care services the better social, emotional, intellectual and physical outcome for children.

At Smarty Pants Pre-School our high quality custom curriculum is created to maximize experiences while preparing children with the skills necessary to lead with confidence. 

At Smarty Pants Pre-School we administer a custom first class curriculum. Our expertise on how children develop enabled us to create courses of study that combine child directed and teacher directed approaches. The blend of teacher directed lessons along with child choice affords a stimulating environment full of fun, discovery, exploration, and knowledge. The benefit of the child directed activities motivates children to examine the Smarty Pants Pre-School environment that is rich with materials and experiences. Through self initiated interactions within the prepared environment children gain an understanding of cause and effect, relationships between objects, object recognition and problem solving skills.

The advantage of teacher directed lessons offer young children that have limited life experiences, opportunities to participate in events that they are not in a position to be aware of or independently seek. Teacher directed lessons give specific instruction based on age appropriate well defined subject matter in a traditional education environment. This formal academic experience provides children an understanding of school and gives them an important early start to the education process.

At Smarty Pants Pre-School we know children rapidly develop. They transition from infant to toddler to a pre-school child seemingly overnight. During this period of growth children go from crawling to walking, babbling to talking, comprehension, imitating and remembering. At each stage of growth and development children require different stimulation nurturing and lessons.

Understanding the progression of child development we have created a well defined age appropriate curriculum. Each program within the custom curriculum is sequential and specifically designed to maximize the skills and abilities of each age group.  Within each program there is a daily schedule of lessons and activities. The schedule exposes children to new adventures and technologies, and capitalizes on their amazing ability to learn. The schedule promotes enthusiasm for school as well as self confidence imagination and creativity.
