A time for refreshment, relaxation, conversation and developing independence in a community of friends.

The daily routine includes playground time, lunch time, a gathering large group time, story and a rich center time full of opportunities to use stimulating materials to work together in creating, designing, and tinkering.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n
