"The Bear Corner"
Little Bears - (Babies) 6 weeks to 23 months
We
provide a loving, safe and homelike environment for the children in our
care. The class schedule for those in Bear Corner is tentative.
Children are loved and cared for according to their own individual needs
and to their parent's wishes. Teachers spend their time playing with
the children, rocking them, holding them, and moving them from one
activity to another, just as would happen in their own home. There are
plenty of toys and equipment to keep everybody busy and learning.
Diapers
are changed every 1 1/2 to 2 hours, or more often as needed. Teachers
keep a daily chart keeping track of when the children were changed.
Each child has his or her own crib or cot. Cubbies and shelf space for personal items are also provided.

"The Jungle Room ~ Preschool and After School Care"

The primary goals for the Dinosaur and Jungle rooms are to teach social skills, cooperation, sharing, learning good bathroom habits, table manners, and being part of the clean-up team. We encourage the children to use their words in time of conflict. We encourage the love of school, books, music, reading readiness, etc. At Cub Corner Learning Center, Inc. we desire to build within each child a strong foundation, self-confidence and assurance for life.
