Learning & Daily Schedule
Our care providers offer a home away from home environment and the most attentive care overall. We have a very enriching environment that’s full of love, warmth and lots of learning experiences. We maintain close monitoring during activities to ensure the safety for everyone, especially our children. Our Providers have years of experience and are highly knowledgeable in early childhood care and education.
Learning to talk
We build early literacy activities daily. We read books, point and name objects, listen to their baby talk and talk and make sounds back to them. We use some sign language as well.
Expressing themselves
To help with their creative development, we use sensory play such as touch (like water and playdoh), express feelings through movement, listen to music, and play toy instruments.
Reading and Writing
We practice ABCs, numbers, colors, sight words and shapes daily.
At the ages of 2-4 years old, this is the perfect time to encourage pretend play, reading books, expanding vocabulary, and dancing and playing musical instruments. It’s a time for more interaction with the world. That’s because children at this stage enjoy the sensory pleasures of art, writing and creating.
At Agape Love Daycare our children learn to read & write after learning to speak and listen actively.
