Ninety percent. That’s the amount of your child’s brain that develops before they ever start kindergarten. Think about that for a second. It’s like building the entire foundation and frame of a house before you even choose the furniture. Those early years are so much more than playtime; they are the most important building period of your child’s entire life.
The Space Between Play and Learning
We all want the best for our kids. You drop them off, hoping they have a good day, of course. But a lot of places just watch children; they don’t really teach them. Without a real plan for learning, those precious early years can slip away. The difference might not seem big now, but it can show up later. It can be the gap between a child who runs into school excited and one who feels a little lost. We believe that true growth happens in the space where play and learning meet, where a game is also a lesson in sharing or counting.
What Happens When We Wait?
If we miss this short window, it’s not just about letters and numbers. It’s about the quiet stuff. It’s the confidence to ask for a turn on the swing. It’s the ability to try something hard, not get it right, and want to try again. It’s about listening to a simple instruction without getting upset. When these skills aren’t nurtured, it can start a tough cycle. A study from Harvard University found that children in great early learning programs are 70% less likely to need special help later in school. This isn’t about creating a super-child. It’s about giving them the tools they need to be happy and capable.
Our approach to early learning is built around a simple idea: that children learn best when they are engaged and having fun. Here’s what that looks like in our classroom every day:
- Social & Emotional Growth: We focus on sharing feelings, solving problems with words, and making friends. This builds a child’s confidence from the inside out.
- Language & Communication: Through stories, songs, and lots of conversation, we help children find their voice and understand the world around them.
- Cognitive & Motor Skills: Our activities are designed to spark curiosity and develop important physical skills, from holding a crayon to building a block tower.
A Different Kind of Classroom
So what does this all mean for your family? It means finding a place that feels like a second home, but one that is secretly a powerful learning environment. Our Preschool Programs in Leduc are carefully designed for that critical time of brain growth. We see ourselves as your partner. Imagine a place where building with blocks is a lesson in engineering, where a story about animals teaches empathy, and where every song is a fun way to learn new words.
The results are what you really care about. You want to see your child bursting with excitement to tell you about their day. You want to see them share a little more easily and face a challenge with a “I can do this” attitude. Research shows that children in play-based programs show significantly stronger language, math, and social skills by an average of 32% than other kids. This is the real advantage you can give your child. It’s the foundation for everything that comes next.
