Every culture has its own way of marking special moments—whether through music, food, storytelling, or vibrant festivals. At Little Sunshine’s Playhouse & Preschool, our Creatively Shine™ curriculum this month, “Celebrations Around the World,” introduces children to the joy and diversity of global traditions.
Our Reggio Emilia-inspired curriculum, Creatively Shine™, consists of fun, engaging monthly themes like “Music & Movement” and “Sports & Gaming. The theme for April is “Every Child is an Artist.”
The statement “you should read to your child” isn’t one many people would contradict. There are lots of obvious reasons that reading to children is a good idea. (We’ve already talked about the magical benefits of reading.) The incredible thing about reading, though, is it can have effects on kids that seem truly magical.
As a Reggio Emilia school, we must ensure selections are age-appropriate, ask questions before, after and during the book. Encourage your children to play/act out the plot. Bring the books to life and make reading fun.
This month we are learning about the journey across America. We compiled a great reading list for the whole family. Teach your kids all about America with these great books!
