Play-based preschool curriculum in Philadelphia
Play-based preschool curriculum in Philadelphia
Our play-based approach to early learning.
Children learn through meaningful play, trusted relationships, and experiences that help them understand themselves and the world around them.
Learning through play
Curiosity leads the way.
Teachers create age-appropriate opportunities for children to experiment, imagine, solve problems, communicate, and make decisions - with guidance that respects each child’s pace.
Literacy & Blueprint
Stories, language, and Blueprint literacy support early reading and communication.
Art, Music & Movement
Daily creative experiences encourage expression, coordination, and confidence.
Philadelphia Experiences
Libraries, museums, and community trips connect learning to the city around us.
Social & Emotional Growth
Children practice independence, cooperation, empathy, and resolving conflict.
Outdoor Learning
A private backyard and neighborhood parks make movement part of the day.
Kindergarten Readiness
Children leave with academic, social, and practical skills for what comes next.
