Nothing in human experience is quite so astonishing as the enormous changes that occur during the five short years that transform the newborn into the actively curious, exploring kindergartner. This film examines the work of Lev Vygotsky and Jean Piaget, illuminating the similarities and differences of their contributions to our understanding of the cognitive development of young children. Dr. Elkind uses their research and his own work to look at three aspects of intellectual growth: reasoning, visual perception and the use of language. Children are seen both in interview situations and busily participating in an accredited child care center to illustrate Dr. Elkinds points about their ever changing intellectual abilities. With David Elkind, Ph.D. This is a short clip from the film. further information available at www.davidsonfilms.com.

This video from the Center on the Developing Child at Harvard University (developingchild.harvard.edu outlines basic concepts from the research on the biology of stress which show that major adversity can weaken developing brain architecture and permanently set the body's stress response system on high alert. Science also shows that providing stable, responsive environments for children in the earliest years of life can prevent or reverse these conditions, with lifelong consequences for learning, behavior, and health.

Preppers (Two 1/2 to Three 1/2 Years) :: Our 21/2 year old TLE precocious preppers are now nearly or totally potty trained and will remain in the prepper classroom until ready to enter preschool. Their days are filled with more detailed learning and more structured circle time.They are ready to learn basic writing coloring and cutting. They love their computers. Beginning computer skills and mouse skills are encouraged. Curriculum includes the introduction of LEAP (Learning Experience Academic Program). Once a week they work on their "My Little Leap Books" which introduce academic skills in preparation for preschool. Days are filled with a balance of activities, both quiet, and active. Music, movement, art, science and an array of developmentally appropriate activities make for a day filled with fun and learning. Playground time twice a day if weather permits. Lunch is more social then at the earlier stages and is followed by a nice quiet nap with soothing music and backrubs.
