Values

我们的信念
i.
Eyes bright, every session.

Exuberance is the metric.

ii.
We teach the next thing, not the average thing.

A curriculum tuned to each child so they are always working at the edge.

iii.
The games are the lessons.

Board games teach strategy, turn-taking, memory, and grit.

iv.
Parents as partners.

Extensive notes, plus recommended activities to continue at home.

Pillars of activity

课程领域
Games

Curated puzzle and block games with progressive difficulties and narrative-driven; group board and card games once the group advances.

Music

Singing with guitar, ukulele and piano, plus sight-singing and ear-training exposure and foundations.

Language

Interactive conversations, maximizing and sequencing exposure to sounds, letters, words-to-objects.

Sensorial play

Hands-on sensory exploration.
