Thomas Edison rose from humble beginnings to develop technology and make his inventions widely available and useful.  Invention is commonplace for children of this age as they become inquisitive and exploratory in their place. 

Providing an abundant selection of resources within varied environments allows the imaginative creators to push boundaries and showcase their learning every minute of the day.  Interacting with their peers teaches them social skills such as turn taking and making a friend.

3 years – 4 years

Remembered for his contributions to the art world, Pablo Picasso was a dynamic painter, sculptor, printmaker, and ceramicist who experimented with many art styles and themes in his long-lasting career. 

Children in this room are encouraged to experience and push boundaries, using their intelligence and creativity. They are supported by their Educators to discover their incredible capacity to persist when challenged.

4 years – 5 years

Famous for his theory of relativity, Albert Einstein was a theoretical physicist whose intellectual achievements crowned him as the greatest genius who ever lived.  Children of this age have rapid cognitive development and play becomes more complex. The children in this room want to try new experiences, seek to become self-reliant and want to become independent decision makers. 

Educators support this energy and independence by providing experiences to challenge thinking and this includes participation within the School Preparation Program.
