Hands-On LearningChildren will love learning as they create art, sing, dance, read books and explore the world around them. The Mother Goose Time curriculum presents many creative and hands-on experiences for children to explore each day. Throughout the process, they will ask questions, problem-solve and discover a joy for learning.

Family InvolvementWe help you stay connected to your child’s learning by sending home many projects created by your child including art, mini-books, games and little journals. Through these interactive projects, children learn letters, numbers, shapes and fun facts about the monthly focus theme.

Each month you will also receive a family newsletter highlighting the theme of the month. You will get tips for talking to your child about the topics he is learning. Also included are song lyrics, fingerplays and other fun activities you can share with your child at home.

Curious, Creative & Ready for KindergartenMother Goose Time allows your child’s teacher the ability to customize lessons to your child’s skill level and learning style. The result is a safe environment where your child can confidently try new tasks and increase her innate sense of curiosity. All daily lessons and activities are intentionally designed to help your child gain proficiency in the skills needed to support lifelong success in learning. To better understand the skills your child will work on, visit the Mother Goose Time website and read the Skills and Standards.

Preschool is the prime

opportunity to develop

social skills.

Children learn through play.

Teachable moments happen many times throughout the day. We strive to help the teacher recognize those

moments and utilize them.

Children learn

through hands-on

experiences.

Creating a safe, nurturing learning environment promotes learning.

Learning should be about the process, not the product.

Asking open-ended

questions facilitates

the development

of critical thinking

skills.

create routine. Routines offer learning

opportunities about themselves, others and the world around them.

and times.
