Consider this unknown quote:

Tell me and I forget.
Teach me and I remember.
Involve me and I learn.

This is the mantra of a play based preschool! When given an opportunity to engage in hands-on activities, to manipulate objects, to consider a million different outcomes from the same materials a child's mind is opened immeasurably.

Now, consider this from a very well known scholar, Aristotle:

'Educating the mind without educating the heart is no education at all.'

Blessed are the children at La Casa that we care about teaching to the WHOLE CHILD. Their mind, body, and tender heart!

Weekly Prayer.... Dear Jesus, I pray for the teachers who help me to learn so many things, but mostly about Your love. Watch over them that they will always help to guide me to You.. Amen.
