Welcome To Spirals Gymnastics Edventure Kids Academy Movin’ & More Preschool Program

Where physical education with academic learning are combined!

Our curriculum is built on the philosophy that early childhood learning in combination with

physical education will better prepare children for their introduction to elementary education.

We implement the Movin' & More curriculum which emphasizes physical education for the preschool age child. We believe as many educators do, that it is imperative to give children the

fundamental basics for their physical development.

The academic portion of this curriculum consists of learning the alphabet, shapes, numbers one to twenty, math readiness, colors and so much more.

Edventure Kids Academy Goals are:

*To provide a safe, loving & fun environment

*To help each child develop problem solving skills and encourage their communication, language and thinking skills

*To provide a healthy environment for learning through music, art, play and social interaction with their peers

*To teach each child how to appreciate their families, their world and themselves

Included in this packet is your Parent Manual. This comprehensive guide will help you and your child get the most out of your Movin’ & More experience. If you have any questions please feel free to address them with the director or the office. Thank you in advance!
