What do you like most about your child’s curriculum?
"How it is structured. The simplicity of the activities doesn’t exceed the children’s abilities, and it enables them to absorb and remember more. The curriculum will bend and flex for the needs of its children. Tristan seems very eager to show us his work and to try and teach us the activities." —Desiree Dolly
"I like the way the story is tied into the daily activities and how there are suggestions for activities at home. I think that helps you as a parent to have a daily interaction with your child and show your child that you are interested in what they do. Every day, we talk about the story she is reading and what she did in school. She seems to have enjoyed her day." —Shelly Bartholow
Have you participated in at-home activities related to your child’s curriculum? If so, have you enjoyed them? Do you have a favorite storybook or activity?
"We enjoy doing them every night. We like doing activities that involve feeling textured items." —Helena Herty
"We have, and we enjoy ourselves immensely! We get such joy out of seeing Tristan so interested and happy. We love the progress he’s making. Participating at home makes us feel even more a part of the milestones and achievements." —Desiree Dolly
Have you observed positive developments in your child since enrolling in this program? If so, what have you observed?
"So many! His social interaction has grown in leaps and bounds. Verbal skills have improved greatly. The ability to sit and attend is 10 times greater than before." —Desiree Dolly
Anything else you’d like to tell us about your child or the curriculum?
"I feel my child has benefited, being visually impaired. I think being read a story and then doing activities helps her to have a hands-on experience, and I think that is important." —Shelly Bartholow
