OUTDOOR EXPLORATION

Knoll-Edge values outdoor activities.  Even as infants, the children are taken out twice daily for walks on the Rail-Trail.  Being close to the train station, we chose a fifteen foot train for our playground.  The children use the train for climbing and imaginative play. We also have  Tricycles and push carts that are used to help develop muscles used for peddling.  Hula hoops are also a wonderful way to develop coordination and balance.

Drama and Music

We have four original preschool performances each year.  Our first is a fall sing-a-long, followed by the First Thanksgiving, The Nutcracker, and an end of the year show, which is different each year and corresponds with our curriculum.

The children love to be involved in the programs, from learning lines to singing and making costumes.  The big payoff is when their families come in to see the shows!  In addition, we have daily music and creative movement in all our classrooms.
