There are many fun and educational activities provided at My Little Star daycare.
We watch a limited amount of television. We have movie days where we watch Disney Movies.
We have a circle time every day and explore things such as calendar, concept of time, letters -ABC's, counting/numbers, reading, colors, shapes, etc. The dramatic play is very important, so we enjoy playing doctor, family, grocery shopping, beauty parlor, birthday party and school. Children learn at their own pace. Our activities are planned according to the development level of each and every child in my care. They are age group appropriate.
