We have a music teacher who comes once a week and we take several field trips a year. Our 2’s and 3’s Program In our 2’s and 3’s room we focus on helping children master self-care tasks such as toilet-training and using cups and forks as well as building social skills. We also lay the foundation for future academic learning with the basics such as the alphabet, colors, and basic math skills such as patterns and counting.

We cover all developmental areas including literacy, math concepts, science, social skills, music, and art all couched within a fun and interactive theme such as “Animals” or “The Beach.” Learning activities related to each of those topics are done throughout the week.

Until about the middle of the 20th century, a railroad ran right through the heart of Baltimore County, ferrying passengers from Baltimore to York, PA. In the Parkville-Overlea area, the <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Maryland_and_Pennsylvania_Railroad" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Maryland and Pennsylvania (or Ma &amp; Pa) railroad</a> had stops at Oakleigh and Loch Raven. Passenger service along the railroad line was discontinued by 1954, and by 1958 sections of the railroad south of the Mason-Dixon line had been abandoned. The home pictured in this January 1940 photograph belonged to the foreman of the Ma &amp; Pa railroad. Do you know where it was located? <a href="http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/5/5c/Ma_and_Pa_RR_map.png" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Check out a map of the Ma &amp; Pa railroad on Wikipedia</a>.
