Little Sprouts is a new concept for Naked Apple. Ideally, I would love to see this develop into a program that is more than just drop off nursery care. Specific activities will be created for each child based on developmental readiness. For example, star gazing boxes for our 0-6 month sprouts. Sensory hoops for our 6-12 month sprouts. Gross motor experiences for our 12-24 month sprouts. Preschool readiness for our 24m- 36m sprouts, just to name a few. Recent brain research indicates that birth to age three are the most important years in a child's development. I'm excited to be a part of this most critical time of development in your child's life.

Welcome to Dino Diggers! This class is geared for early elementary grades K through 2 and will be lots fun. We will have lessons centered around Gather Round's Dinosaur unit plan. Lessons will explore archaeology, paleontology, and history at first glance. However, children will be learning bible passages, biblical concepts, apologetics, geography, art and much more science throughout.  From the Gather Round website it directly states:

“Dinosaurs follows the stories of adventure, discoveries, and key people who helped contribute to the world's understanding of these giants of the animal kingdom. Written in living book style, the lessons begin with daily devotional prompts, and each week contain a section about apologetics (specifically, how we know that the Bible is true).” 

This class will also have some bonus lessons outside of the curriculum where our students will be enjoying hands on activities and projects.  This class will encourage children to not be afraid to ask big questions and find big answers in class but also bring these questions home for discussion at home. Get ready for a lot of “rawrs!” ($57)

Discovering Great Artists" encourages students to know the great artists from the renaissance to the present. They will explore their techniques through hands-on experience.
