Building Blocks Preschool

340 Harvey Lake Rd, Highland, MI 48356

About

We are your Home away from Home.

Building the foundation for a love of learning. We frame your child's early childhood education by a daily learning story as a home school connection and document your child's education over time. At graduation your child receives his/her own personal learning story book that is a priceless gift that shares your child's learning journey.

Building Blocks Preschool is centered on one simple
principle: Enriching Active Learners.

We call it "Whole Child Education" that nurtures every aspect
of the child's development-socially, emotionally, cognitively
and physically. What that means is:

....Your child will develop critical thinking skills
....Your child will receive intellectual curiosity and wonder
....Your child's natural interest is followed
....Your child will share the joy of learning inside and outside
in nature

Building Blocks is a Reggio-Inspired, emergent curriculum, the project approach, inquiry-based learning - all in one school! For the sake of simplicity, We use the term Reggio-Inspired. So what is a Reggio-Inspired school? Simply put, it is a school whose practices are inspired by the now rather famous preschools in the town of Reggio Emilia, Italy.

We are a nature based school. Our teachers love Inquire and Science. We back up to 5,000 acres of State land and go on regular Nature Walks. Our teachers are trained and have their education in ECE/Teaching. They are CPR and First Aid trained.

We have wonderful family events: Art show, Ice cream social, Harvest Fest, Egg hunt, and so much more.

We are highly recommended on line (http://local.yahoo.com/info-16287697-building-blocks-preschool-highland)
and if you need personal recommendations our parents are happy to talk to you about our school.

Your child will learn hands on, build creative self and wonder...But don't take our word for it. See for yourself by visiting our school. Our door is open for our parents. They visit any time of the day.

We welcome you and your family to become a part of the Building Blocks Family!
