Hanging with the "Littles"

Permasmile - that's what occurs when I spend any significant time at ECE.  Not only are they so.darn.cute, but they also are doing important work - the important work of play, curiosity, language development, spatial understanding, and so much more.


Personalized play:  swinging, spinning, biking, balancing...

Elaborate designs and stories 

The building blocks of learning

There's a cat down there!
