Turtle Tales Preschool helps children learn and develop by using Mother Goose Preschool Curriculum. By having a preschool curriculum we are able to plan for and support the development and learning of each child at Turtle Tales. Our Program is unique because it gives the children a chance to learn from each other. The younger kids learn from the older kids and the older kids learn patience and tolerance from the younger kids. There are many hidden life lessons that can only be learned in this kind of setting, much like a one room school house did for past generations. Children getting ready for Kindergarten are able to work on their skills along side younger kids who are working on different age appropriate skills.Our basic philosophy is the recognition of each child as a unique individual with varying interests, needs, and abilities. Therefore education is approached in an individualized manner, allowing children to progress at their own pace. It is our belief that the process of learning is more important than the content of learning. Because of the focus on process learning, activities are designed to emphasize the experiences children are having rather than what results from activities. It is less important that a child can copy a "project" than what a child creates, experiments, and discovers! While assisting children in learning, we are always conscious of our primary objective: to establish a warm, nurturing relationship with each child.The children at Turtle Tales range in age from 18 months on up. The younger child learns much from the older ones, while the older child gains a sense of responsibility by helping and including the younger children in his/her play. As the children become older at Turtle Tales, they will have a different learning experience then she/he did when she/he first started. Each play situation becomes more intricate and involved for the older child.
