The Stepping Stone
program is designed to give each child a positive first school experience and to expand his
world beyond the home. The materials and activities in the class satisfy
the children's natural curiosity, sense of order, and desire for independence as
they learn and explore through their senses. The children are given freedom of choice and
movement in a safe and nurturing environment within clearly defined
limits. They are also given the opportunity to interact with other children
and to develop and practice their language skills.
