Tiny Hearts Creative Enrichment Center: Our Experience-Based Curriculum

At Tiny Hearts Creative Enrichment Center, we believe that children learn best through hands-on experiences and real-world engagement. That’s why our curriculum is designed to immerse children in rich, meaningful activities that spark curiosity, foster creativity, and encourage discovery. Every day is filled with opportunities to explore new concepts, engage with the world around them, and build foundational skills that will support lifelong learning.

Experience-Based Learning: Learning Through Play and Exploration

Our experience-based approach means that we focus on active learning. Children at Tiny Hearts don’t just sit and listen—they engage, create, and experiment. Whether they’re investigating science through nature walks, building problem-solving skills through group projects, or exploring new languages through stories and songs, each child is encouraged to take an active role in their learning journey.

Through this immersive, hands-on approach, children develop not only their academic skills but also their social, emotional, and physical capabilities. Our curriculum is designed to meet children where they are, allowing them to grow and learn at their own pace in a supportive and stimulating environment.

How Brightwheel Enhances Our Curriculum

To ensure that we’re offering a well-rounded, engaging experience for your child, we utilize Brightwheel, a comprehensive early education platform that enhances our experience-based curriculum. Brightwheel allows us to document and track every child’s individual progress in realtime, ensuring that we’re meeting their unique developmental needs.

With Brightwheel, we maintain detailed, personalized portfolios for each child that showcase their activities, achievements, and daily experiences. This platform also enables us to communicate seamlessly with parents, so you stay informed about your child’s day-to-day activities and milestones. You can expect updates on everything from what they’re learning and exploring, to snapshots of their creative projects and social interactions.

A Balanced Approach to Learning

Our curriculum is carefully crafted to provide a balanced mix of structured learning and free exploration. Here’s a look at what we focus on:

• Cognitive Development: Through interactive lessons in literacy, math, science, and the arts, we introduce key concepts that encourage problem-solving and critical thinking. Our approach is centered on giving children the tools they need to think independently and confidently.
• Creative Expression: Every child is given the opportunity to express themselves creatively through art, music, dance, and imaginative play. These activities help develop fine motor skills, promote self-expression, and encourage innovation.
• Social and Emotional Skills: At Tiny Hearts, we believe that social-emotional learning is just as important as academic achievement. Through group activities, collaborative play, and emotional coaching, children learn how to navigate relationships, build empathy, and develop confidence.
• Physical Development: Active play is an essential part of our curriculum. We incorporate daily physical activities, whether it’s exploring our nature playground or participating in structured movement games, to help children develop their motor skills, balance, and overall physical health.

Individualized Learning for Every Child

No two children are the same, and we celebrate that at Tiny Hearts. Our experience-based curriculum allows for individualized learning plans that cater to the unique strengths, interests, and needs of each child. With Brightwheel, we can easily tailor activities to ensure that every child is receiving the right level of challenge and support.
