Age Appropriate Classes & Playgrounds
At the Child Development Center, learning is fun! Infants and toddlers are encouraged
in developmental and social skills, while older children experience dance, music,
books, science, dramatic play, art and so on. Classes are structured around groups
of children who have reached the same age and developmental accomplishments. Parents
find the center to be a resource they can turn to for insight into their childs development
and behavior.
The Child Development Center has two separate playgrounds, one for infants and toddlers and one for preschool children. This assures that children are playing with those of similar physical skills.
