Family Reviews

I’m so in love with this school. I love how my daughter is so excited to get up and go to school so she can see her teachers and classmates. I love how the teachers put their all in knowing each child personally, which is wonderful in helping them with their educational development.

Shara-Tyann Duncan

The staff is phenomenal! Very kind and very knowledgeable in their roles. They are teaching our children, not just “watching” them. There are lesson plans and curriculum that is followed in addition to fun and excitement. I wouldn’t send my children anywhere else nor would I recommend anywhere else. ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

Keisha

I absolutely love the Sunshine House. My son is in pre-k 2 and is learning so much about patterns, how to spell and recognizing letters, syllables, counting, colors and so on. We love this school!

Netta

My children have been with the Sunshine House almost since birth and I honestly appreciate how they not only have assisted in the education of my children, but also helped to instill in my children values. I appreciate that my kids have learned about right and wrong choices, treating teachers and friends with respect and showing compassion and helping others.

Stephanie M.

I feel confident in my son’s safety and care when sending him to daycare each morning, which is very important to me as he is not old enough to communicate otherwise to me. I love the app that updates me on my child hourly!

Destiny

I LOVE it here for my son. It was his first time at daycare and I was a bit worried about leaving him with anyone. The entire staff did what they could to assure me that my son was in great hands. Needless to say my son shows that he enjoys himself and is learning a lot.

Family Reviews

I would absolutely recommend this Sunshine House! My son has been here for over 5 years! The staff has little turn over so we have gotten to know them over the years. It is nice to know the people you are trusting with your child. They are always friendly and smiling! Now that he is school age they pick him up from school and make sure that he has time to work on his homework, which is very helpful. During the summer, the summer camp program is awesome! They arrange fun field trips and have great in house activities for non field trip days. I feel comfortable in knowing that my son is safe and happy when I am working!

Emily Shue

My daughter has been attending since she was 3 months old. She loves going there. The staff and director are all so nice and always willing to answer any questions or address concerns. I love this place, couldn’t have made a better choice of where to enroll my daughter.

Nohemi Padilla

Great daycare! My son hated daycare before but loves going here. He wakes up happy to go to daycare and at the end of the day when I pick him up he tells me how much he loves daycare and his teacher. Makes me feel good that I picked them for my baby and to know that he is well taken care of!!

Ada Martinez

This daycare is amazing. My son loves his teachers and friends. The sunshine house has really helped my son become smarter and more engaged with group activities. I’m glad I put my son into this school because I know he will be ready for kindergarten.

Myriah Paulk

Our son has grown and improved so much since he’s been here than he probably ever would’ve had he not been here. His teachers are the greatest and they work so well with him and with us that I can’t stop telling people about this center.

Games for kids at home: two dozen ideas for entertaining a capricious child

Word games

Word games are a universal way to pass the time. They do not need props and special training, and you can play them not only at home, but also on the way to kindergarten or school, in line at the store and in other situations when you need to quickly occupy and distract the child.

“Such games develop speech and thinking, fantasy and imagination in children. The richer and more correct the child’s speech, the easier it is for him to express his thoughts and understand others, the wider his possibilities in understanding the world around him, the more meaningful and full the relationship with peers and adults, the more actively his personality develops,

, emphasizes the candidate of pedagogical sciences, psychologist, leading researcher of the Institute for the Study of Childhood, Family and Education Anna Boyarintseva.

At the request of Gazeta.Ru, the teacher shared several games for children of different ages.

“Flies – does not fly”

In this game, the lead adult asks the child to quickly name “flying” words when he says the word “flying”, and then name other words when he says the word “does not fly”. The host says: “Flies.” The child calls: “Crow, plane, butterfly, mosquito, fly, rocket, dove,” etc. Then the leader says: “Does not fly.” The task of the child is to list everyone who belongs to this group, for example: “Bicycle, daisy, cup, dog, pencil, kitten”, etc.

“Edible – inedible”

The game is played by analogy with the previous one.

“Living – non-living”

An adult explains that we call all living objects “who”, and non-living objects “what”, and gives several examples, then proceeds to questions and answers. Example questions: what grows, who grows, who flies, what flies, who swims, what swims, who is the biggest, what is the biggest.

Extra Four

The facilitator says to the children: “I will name four words, one word does not fit here. You must listen carefully and name the fourth “extra” word. For example: matryoshka, tumbler, cup, doll; table, sofa, flower, chair; chamomile, hare, dandelion, cornflower; horse, bus, tram, trolleybus; wolf, crow, dog, fox; sparrow, crow, dove, chicken; apple, tree, carrot, cucumber. After each highlighted “extra” word, it is important to ask the child to explain the principle of grouping.

“Name it in one word”

The child is asked to summarize (name in one word) a group of objects. For example, we call birch, pine, oak, etc. “trees”, carp, cod, pike – “fish”, daffodil, rose, iris and tulip – garden flowers, etc.

“Search for an analogy”

An adult names a word (for example, a briefcase). And he asks the child to come up with as many “analogues” as possible, that is, other items similar to him in various essential features (bag, bag, backpack, etc. )

“Born in the USSR, applied all over the world, but forgotten here”: a teacher about a set of TRIZ methods 08:23

Outdoor games

Elena Valkova, an educator and expert on family education, believes that the game must be in the life of a preschooler and older children.

“With the help of the game, you can work out fears, insecurity, shyness, and resolve conflict situations. But not only. With the help of the game, you can study any subject of the school curriculum, develop memory, emotional intelligence, and much more, ”says teacher Valkova.

The expert gave examples of several outdoor games for children aged 4-10. According to the teacher, such games perfectly develop information perception skills and reactions.

“Mystery bag”

, without taking out. Such “black bags” can be made from toys and objects, from vegetables and fruits.

Collecting floats

This game will require as many corks as possible (can be replaced with small rubber or plastic toys that do not sink) and water. The game can be played when the child is sitting in the bath or put a basin of water in the bath.

Throw corks into the water and say, “Let’s see how many floats you/you can collect while I…” (e.g. sing a song, count to 20, do 5 squats). You can complicate the task and ask to collect the floats with a spoon in a bowl.

“Rybki”

Parent is a fisherman. Children or a child are fish. The fisherman spins the rope around him on the floor. Fish or fish must jump when the rope approaches, not get caught on the hook, that is, do not step on the rope.

It’s more fun to play if the leader says: “Fish, fish, I need fish. A full cauldron is needed to eat them for dinner.”

“Changeling”

One of the players holds his hands palms up (he will be the “beater”). The second player places their hands palm down on top of the first player’s palms. The “beater” must very quickly pull his hands out from under the palms of the second player and touch the back of the opponent’s hands before he pulls them back.

Neurogames for hyperactive children

“Neurogames help to influence brain structures through the body, develop memory, attention, teach children concentration and self-control. In some ways, they are similar to gymnastics, but often there is a plot and goals here, ”says Anna Chepik, founder and head of the Miracle School Umnitsa children’s center.

The teacher shared four examples of neurogames for kids and schoolchildren.

“Repeat, or Robot”

In this game, the child must complete the tasks of an adult who offers to repeat the movements after him: “Right arm up, left leg forward, one squat” and so on. At first, the parent first shows the actions himself, and then waits for the child to repeat. Then you can complicate the task by simply listing the sequence of actions (without demonstration) that the child will repeat.

“Show me the way”

An adult is blindfolded, and the child must lead him from point A to point B, describing the way with the words: “Two steps forward, one step to the left, two steps to the right”, and so on. After the adult reaches the destination, the participants in the game change roles: now the child, with his eyes closed, will look for the way under the dictation of the mentor.

“Repeat the drawing”

In this game, the facilitator thinks of an animal, toy or other object and asks the child to draw it on a large sheet of paper, using prompts: “He has small eyes, a long and large mouth, sharp teeth, etc. etc.”

close

100%

Neurodance

An adult prepares several cards with images of various objects. For example, a ball, sun, drum, bicycle, etc. Each picture indicates an action that the child must perform. The ball is a jump, the sun is head up, the drum is clap, the bike is running in place.

To the music, the facilitator shows the cards to the child, and he tries to repeat the necessary actions in the correct sequence.

Games for the development of fine motor skills

“The development of fine motor skills — the movements of the small muscles of the hands — directly affects the coordination of movements, the development of intelligence, thinking, memory,” explains Elena Mingova, teacher, founder of the Cosmo Kids kindergarten network.

According to the expert, the best games for the development of fine motor skills for younger preschoolers will be known to everyone “patties” , where a sequence of alternate claps and synchronization of movements are practiced, and “magpie – crow cooked porridge” with successive bending of fingers.

The teacher offers to involve the child in household chores by inventing games with materials at hand.

“For example, the well-known Cinderella game , when the baby sorts out two or three types of cereals (separate buckwheat from rice and put it in different jars). This is certainly exciting, but with more pleasure and benefit, the child will help his mother simply sort out buckwheat , pulling out small stones and black unopened grains, ”the teacher emphasizes.

Mingova also suggests that preschooler keep preschooler busy with stringing beads, winding knitting threads into a ball, sorting buttons by color or shape, sorting screws and nuts by size, or working with dough .
