We offer curriculum and activities that develop the whole child.
Play Centers/Play and Learn believes that a comprehensive curriculum for infants through pre-school must have as its foundation an understanding that children learn through play and that there is a clear relationship between play and future academic success.
Children's learning opportunities need to be developmentally appropriate, multi-sensory, enriching the needs and interests of each child.
After careful evaluation, Play Centers/Play and Learn selected The Creative Curriculum, a Maryland State Department of Education approved curriculum, which aligns with our educational philosophy.
