The Little Mud Puddles Learning Center is open Monday-Friday from 6:45 AM to 6:15 PM

Developmentally appropriate practices are used in each classroom to teach academics, expose children to various social settings, and encourage creative minds. Our curriculum covers all areas of the children’s development and focuses on the process of an activity rather than the finished product. These areas are separated in eight (8) main groups as described below: 

Intellectual Growth:

We help the children with problem solving skills and distinguish between cause and effect. We also teach academics such as the alphabet, shapes, colors and numbers.

Creativity:

We encourage originality in all areas of the curriculum to enhance each child’s imagination. We offer dramatic play, music, science and developmental materials. Creative art activities are offered such as painting, collage materials, pudding art and playdough.

Fine and Motor Gross Skills:

We provide an environment that develops gross motor skills such as climbing, bike riding, etc., and fine motor skills such as handwriting to prepare children for kindergarten. These skills are carefully planned play, indoors and out, into all areas of the curriculum. The child’s physical and mental abilities are developed in a coordinated fashion. 

Communication Skills:

We encourage the children to express their feelings and thoughts through words. Communication and language development are enhanced by consistent exposure to books, story time, flannel boards, acting out through use of puppetry, making up their own stories and telling those stories through verbal communication and creative art. 

Science and Cooking Skills:

Science activities are planned weekly. The children learn to discover information about the natural and man-made world. The children will also prepare their own snack once a week. Good nutrition will be emphasized and taught through cooking projects.

Sharing Through Play:

Sharing is the basis of social development for children. In order to develop self-esteem, children must be aware of others and learn to respect both themselves and their peers. 

Hooked on Phonics:

With our small group tutoring classes, your child can learn to read independently with individualized attention from our Certified Hooked on Phonics Teacher. Lessons are structured to be fun and rewarding for children. The small group instructional model enables them to learn at their own pace while feeling success at every step.
