A Family Affair Children's Center

We have a full preschool program serving children ages two through five years old. We use creative curriculum which is a theme based, teacher created curriculum. 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. Our 4’s and 5’s Program Our 4’s and 5’s program focuses on Kindergarten readiness. 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.

This year, the <a href="http://www.fgcofmd.org/" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Federated Garden Clubs of Maryland</a> has chosen the Cromwell Bridge Park and Ride as the location of their annual initiative to plant trees in public spaces. Thirty-seven trees, consisting of Japanese cherries and canopy trees, will be planted in the area, according to an email from Elyssa Baxter, a past local director of the organization. The effort is funded about $3,000 to $5,000 every year through an endowment from Alice Rush McKeon, a past president of the <a href="http://www.gsvgc.org/" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Green Spring Valley Garden Club. </a> "Investing in our communities is only one small part of the Federated Garden Clubs many activities in the area," Baxter wrote.
