This is a sneaky contest for our bloggers...

***Come into the studio and get a slip of paper from on top of the TV.

***I'll pick a paper from the jug on Thursday evening (March 26)

***The prize------ 2 SLINKY "POP TOOBS"

Go and Stop

You've had those days...
Left to his or her own devices your little one would go, go, go, all day long. That's why we stop!
Inhibitory Control Activities that encourage a child to move or stop moving in response to a cue help the child develop inhibitory control. The ability to control one’s own body movements is an important step toward developing coordination and self-discipline.

The importance of repetition

Why is there so much repetition in our classes?
"Repetition continues to be important in the development of language and movement, as it is repeated experiences that reinforce the pathways of the brain. By two years of age, a toddler's cerebral cortex contains well over a hundred trillion synapses, which is actually some fifty percent more than she will keep as an adult. While new synapses form rapidly during this time frame, a 'pruning' process is also taking place. This process strengthens frequently used pathways, while deleting those that are not used. As pruning continues, it will allow your child to process thoughts and actions more quickly and efficiently" (www.zerotothree.org 1998-2001)
