Our Classroom
All three year old classrooms are set up with unique learning centers that encourage children to be self-sufficient while fostering an understanding of basic concepts. Our child-centered room arrangement allows children to move freely from one interest center to the next, giving them the opportunity to make plans and choices in their environment
Curriculum
We choose broad themes to explore that allow each classroom to individualize their study based on the teacher and children’s interests and questions. A study of animals for example, in one room may center on animals at the zoo while another classroom may focus on pets and how to care for animals in your home. This type of individualization allows teachers to modify curriculum and build on what is exciting to their group.
A Day in the Life
We believe in a balanced day for your child. We create the perfect mix between quiet and active times, large and small group learning, child initiated activities and teacher facilitated activities to create a day full of learning and fun!
Meals & Snacks
Children who are with us all day enjoy daily, nutritious snacks and meals. Besides a balanced meal, we also focus on table manners, independence and good eating habits.
Circle Time
Every day we gather together and share stories, talk about our day and plan our learning journey. Being together allows us to get to know our friends, sing songs and play learning games. We assign helpers for the day, give a weather report and take a look at our calendar.
🎄💌 Spreading Christmas Cheer Across Generations 💌🎄
Our PreK-3 and PreK-4 friends had the sweetest opportunity to decorate Christmas cards for a local nursing home, and their hearts were just as busy as their hands. ❤️
Through this activity, our children learned about kindness, giving, and thinking of others—especially those who may need a little extra joy during the holiday season. Each card was filled with creativity, love, and genuine holiday cheer, reminding us that even the smallest hands can make a big difference.
We are so proud of our students for spreading smiles and showing what it truly means to give from the heart this Christmas. 🎅✨Making spirits bright at the nursing home!
Thank you Fundamentals Early Learning Center - Central for helping spread Christmas cheer! ... See MoreSee Less

❄️ Learning Through Play in Our Toddler Classroom! ☃️
Today our toddlers created adorable 3D snowmen by placing cotton balls onto a picture—and while it looked like simple fun, so much learning was happening!
This activity helped support:
✨ Fine motor skills as little hands picked up and placed the cotton balls
✨ Hand-eye coordination through careful placement
✨ Sensory exploration by feeling different textures
✨ Creativity & self-expression as each snowman became uniquely their own
✨ Focus and confidence as they worked to complete their masterpiece
Hands-on art experiences like this build important early skills while allowing toddlers to explore, create, and feel proud of what they accomplish. We love watching their learning come to life—one cotton ball at a time! 💙❄️ ... See MoreSee Less

✨🚂 All Aboard the Polar Express! 🚂✨
Today was pure magic! Our kiddos spent the day cozy in their pajamas, sipping hot chocolate piled high with marshmallows, enjoying puffs, and diving into all kinds of Polar Express–themed activities ❄️☕️🎄
From the movie to the make-believe, their imaginations were full steam ahead — and we loved every minute of it! ❤️
Believe in the magic of Christmas! 🎅🏼✨ ... See MoreSee Less

🎨 Why We Let Our Young Toddlers Explore Paint 🎨
If you’ve ever seen a toddler covered in paint from head to toe, you know it’s more than a messy moment — it’s learning in action! ❤️
When our young toddlers paint, they’re not just making art. They’re:
✨ Building sensory awareness
✨ Strengthening fine-motor skills
✨ Exploring creativity and self-expression
✨ Learning cause & effect
✨ Practicing calm focus and emotional regulation
✨ Engaging with friends and sharing space
Paint play is one of the best ways for little ones to learn about their world — with their whole bodies, whole brains, and whole hearts. 💛
We love giving them opportunities to explore, discover, and create! 🎨🖐️ ... See MoreSee Less
