Preschool is a magical time in a child’s education—one that will help to shape a child’s attitude toward learning and school. We believe that preschool should be a time of exploration, a time of socialization, a time of preparation for future learning, a time to develop good foundations of fitness within a program that seeks to meet the needs of the preschool child and his/her family. That is how Jungle Club came to be.
Unlike a traditional preschool that requires set days and lengthy contracts, our program is designed for families who are seeking greater flexibility in the education of their pre-school child. Students may choose as few as one day per week or as many as five days per week. Additionally, our afternoon Adventurers program allow you to extend you child’s day to 2pm or 3pm with exciting enrichment opportunities such as dance, drama, art, cooking, yoga and gymnastics.
Jungle Club’s philosophy is play based and focuses on social skills, fitness, character development and kindergarten readiness in a developmentally appropriate environment. The Jungle Club curriculum is interesting and educational. Monthly themes and weekly units keep our learning interesting and relevant. . Our curriculum is guided and shaped by our experienced staff of early childhood educators, standards of developmentally appropriate practice and National Association for the Education of Young Children. JAG GYM owner Anne Josephson, holds her Masters’ Degree in Educational Psychology and oversees the curriculum and lesson planning for Jungle Club. |
