Preschool Learning & Discovery Time

A few years ago I decided to give my Story Time a face lift. The children and families I have worked with were capable of so much more. While the original format of a story time program is still relevant and fun, I imagined I could make this experience so much more. An experience with more opportunity for creative, hands-on learning that goes beyond cutting and pasting. Enter Preschool Learning & Discovery Time. While much remains the same, we still read stories, sing, dance and etc., I have added hands-on learning experiences and STEM activities. Let's face it, kids are smart. I wanted to begin introducing concepts to these little sponges to spark their imaginations and create joy around learning. We do simple experiments, graph, measure, predict, count, sort and all of the things! Children are introduced to basic scientific terms and concepts in a fun way. Stay tuned for some of my favorite PL&D Time themes and concepts.
