Todos Together Play Center<\/h2><\/div>

A Place for Kids to be Kids<\/h1><\/h2><\/div>

The Todos Together Play Center is perfectly and purposefully designed for children to learn through play. Themes change with the seasons. Children and their caretakers can take advantage of opportunities to learn and grow through the purposeful display of stimulating materials and meaningful interactions in the Todos Together Play Center. The Reggio-Emilia approach to early childhood recognizes the physical environment as a teacher in and of itself, and the Play Center is just that. The rotating exhibits purposefully engage children in a particular theme as they explore, create, and wonder over the materials presented. In the Play Center, children have the opportunity to express themselves with more than “100 languages” including art, movement, construction, imagination, sensory play, scientific inquiry, and more.\u00a0<\/span><\/h3>\n
