Bud Room
Bud Room
Our Philosophy:
At Growing Tree we believe that children learn through play. Play is a child’s work. In the Bud Classroom you will see many different age appropriate activities set up for the children to explore. Each activity has a different developmental focus which instill confidence, self-esteem, and a love of learning.
Nurturing Care:
Compassionate teachers, a safe nurturing environment, and a room decorated with your child’s work is what you will see in the Bud Room. Our teachers provide age appropriate activities, positive redirection. They even help with potty training, but only when your child is ready.
Growth and Development:
The Bud Room is a classroom full of movement and autonomy. At times you may see shoes on the wrong feet, clothes on inside out, and not so clean faces. Please be patient as your child “buds” into a self-reliant member of our classroom. A two-year-olds favorite phrase is “I can do it.” We never want to discourage their independence.
