• Focusing on the child; home, family, pets, community, and expanding his/her experience from the known towards the unknown, will help the child to develop his/her self-concept.

• Role-playing is planned to implement the child's knowledge of the world.

• Musical and art experiences will emphasize group and independent exploration of materials for personal pleasure as well as the development of skills.
