Small World Is Designed For Children Six Weeks Through Five Years Of Age.
We Believe That Quality Day Care Is Not Only A Valuable Supplement To Home Care, But Also An Experience That Stimulates A Childs Physical, Emotional, Social And Intellectual Development.
No Home Could Possibly Contain All The Toys, Games And Large-muscle-building Equipment Found In A Well-equipped Day Care Center.
Children Develop Coordination And Control As They Run, Jump, Skip, Hop And Climb Under The Watchful Supervision Of Adults.
Both Indoor And Outdoor Play Provides Children With Opportunities To Develop Large-muscle Skills.
Smaller Manipulative Materials Such As Puzzles, Beads And Blocks Assist In The Development Of Fine Motor Coordination.
A Rich Environment Surrounds Children With Helpful Adults Who Encourage And Assist The To Develop Both Physical Skills And A Positive Concept Of Self.
Such A Concept Emerges From The Successful Mastery Of Meaningful Skills.
