Our Program

Infants (0-24 months):

Our infant program will be guided with a RIE-inspired philosophy. Here at Happy Lil' Campers, we believe in respecting infants and providing an environment that will foster the natural growth and curiosity of a baby. 

 

Toddler to preschool (24 months-5 years):

The toddler to preschool program will be Reggio Emilia inspired along with Play-based learning. This means that children are engaging in materials that are interesting to them, allowed to make choices in their environment, and using their own imagination to construct meaning with materials. With Reggio and play-based learning, the teacher still uses standards but sets up an environment in which children have options for learning.
