New Suggested Parent Reading Article

From time to time, I come across something that I feel is informative and important for parents to read.  The following article was sent to me and it talks about the importance of play in the kindergarten classroom.  We are very fortunate at AEEC that our curriculum is play oriented, child-centered and developmentally appropriate.  Unfortunately, this is not the case in many kindergarten classrooms in the United States.  Not only does this article discuss the benefits of play but it also validates many of the things that we do here at AEEC!
