A Curriculum Built Around How Children Actually Learn
At Sunshine Learning Center, we follow the Creative Curriculum, a research-backed, nationally recognized early childhood framework that puts hands-on, play-based learning at the center of everything we do. Unlike rigid, one-size-fits-all programs, Creative Curriculum is designed to meet each child exactly where they are developmentally and help them grow at their own pace.
Our teachers use this framework to create structured yet flexible lesson plans that integrate four core developmental areas:
Problem-solving, critical thinking, and early math and science concepts introduced through exploration and discovery
Building vocabulary, early literacy skills, and the confidence to express ideas through stories, songs, and conversation
Fine and gross motor skills developed through active play, art, sensory activities, and outdoor experiences
Learning to share, collaborate, build friendships, and manage emotions in a supportive classroom community
We measure success by the growth, confidence, and love of learning we see in each child.
Programs for Every Age and Stage
Infants (6 weeks - 12 months)
Our infant program centers on responsive, individualized care from consistent caregivers. Personal cribs, a clean shoe-free environment, and separate feeding and diaper areas provide safety and comfort. Sensory play, music, language-rich interaction, and physical affection support secure attachment and early development.
Toddlers (1-2 years)
Toddlers are becoming independent and expressive. Our classrooms balance structure with freedom to explore. We introduce early academic concepts through sensory play, support emerging language, and encourage growing confidence and self-expression.
Early Preschool (2-4 years)
Early preschool children develop academic skills and friendships. Our learning centers support exploration in literacy, math, science, art, and dramatic play. Children work together, develop early academic foundations, and build the social competencies needed for school.
Preschool and Pre-K (4-6years)
Our pre-K program ensures kindergarten readiness. We incorporate phonics, writing, math, and science into meaningful, play-based activities. Art, music, movement, and outdoor exploration ensure balanced development across all developmental domains.
