Our preschool curriculum is Reggio Emilia-inspired and is a combination of structured and flexible lessons. Daily activities introduce children to art, Spanish, letters, numbers, phonics, patterns, tracing and writing. The group’s current interests are woven into the curriculum to make sure that learning is fun and exciting. For more information on the Reggio Emilia approach, please visit our website and read our blog post about Reggio methods.

At Gwiggles, we place great emphasis on social-emotional learning (SEL) and developing personal skills. We know that a strong foundation in these areas will help them excel in all areas of their lives including the academic aspect of their early childhood education. As opportunities present themselves throughout the day, through affirmations, and during group conversations, we help children practice communication, emotional expression, self advocacy, conflict resolution and emotional regulation.

Our kiddos also practice getting dressed themselves, independently completing bathroom tasks, cleaning up after meals, and completing other classroom chores such as loading their blankets and outdoor gear into the washing machine.
