"Children learn best through play, and play gives them safe space to explore, experiment, and understand the world around them." - Carolyn Webster-Stratton

Kids are capable.
With guidance, practice, and room to view mistakes as an opportunity to learn, even young children can play a role in caring for themselves.
Checkout how we use snack time as an opportunity for kids to practice self care and independence!
You might ask, "What's an outdoor classroom?" At Springfield First Preschool it's a space where we set up intentional opportunities and spaces and our kids play, learn, and grow outside the entire morning. Not a playground, or just tables set up in the grass. An actual classroom outdoors! Take a peek at what our kids have been up to in the outdoor classroom this spring!
If you would like to tour our indoor and outdoor classrooms or learn more about the play based, child-led learning at Springfield First Preschool contact Molly Booher at [email protected] or (217)793-9760
