Arrival begins at 7:30 a.m. Self-directed play, creative time, and lots of activities both indoors and outdoors fill the day. When the children first enter the classroom, they are greeted by a teacher and given the freedom to explore the various learning activities and interests that have been prepared for them. These areas can be changed daily, weekly, or hourly. Some of these activities include clay, paint, collage, musical instruments, books, dolls, writing, reading, and sensory activities.

We also offer a variety of activities for special days, and occasions. The children learn through hands-on interaction with their environment. Each day is special, opening up new worlds to conquer, and new things to try.

A teacher is always nearby to lend support and guidance, answer a question, set guidelines, and to change the activities. There will be circle times, learning times, outdoor times, activity times, music and movement, and one-on-one time, where the children can have time to interact with the teacher individually. In addition, there will be time to go outdoors, and run, climb, hop, dig, balance, and play games!

The Childrens Playhouse Daycare program closes at 5:30 p.m, with early drop off and late pick up options at our Bucknam Street location (additional rates apply).
