As people reach high school, many begin to question why they need to know all of those mathematical equations or scientific principles. They wonder if they will ever use square roots or need to know how to calculate velocity. Unless they end up becoming a mathematician or a scientist of some sort, the answer is probably no. While these things are important to learn to some extent, the majority of us will never use anything more
At a young age, children’s learning and development are greatly influenced by their surroundings, their relationships, and how they are taught to learn. At this stage in life, it is important for children to feed their own curiosities and learn at their own pace, in their own way. The Creative Curriculum and the Teaching Strategies GOLD® help teach children to be independent in their learning and allow the teachers to evaluate the pace and style at
As kids grow older, they begin to realize that they can act differently. They figure out that acting a certain way will get them what they want, and sometimes that means that they expect to get their way when throwing a tantrum in the grocery store. Kids will be kids and manners are taught. Kids aren’t going to grow up knowing to keep their elbows off the table when they eat or to say “excuse me”

Spring has sprung! Even though we face multiple snow threats here in the midwest, the hint of spring in the air is enough to give you the itch to get out and get active. With your little ones being cooped up inside all winter, the anticipation of sunny warm days is almost too much to handle. For those teeter-totter weather days in these next few months, sometimes it’s necessary to keep the spirit of spring
Parenting is a wonderful and exciting journey, but it is extremely difficult at times. Each child is different and can present unique challenges in problem solving, disciplining, and implementing routines. As a result, each parenting method is different. At Yellow Brick Road, we work with your child as an individual to positively and negatively reinforce them in healthy ways to encourage their unique personality and character. To help give a better understand, let’s take a look
Helping your child develop healthy social skills early on is an essential aspect of being a parent. As your sweet infant starts to develop their own personality you will learn more about how they navigate situations and respond to other children. In these times, encouraging and understanding how to best aid them in the process can mitigate potential issues when they are sent off to daycare or school. At Yellow Brick Road, our passion is to
The first time you drive a car, it’s often a mixture of terror and exhilaration. Using your own wits and reflexes, you’re controlling a multi-ton vehicle and going at high speeds! After time passes, you get the hang of it, and driving becomes not such a big deal. But then you get a new car! It takes a little bit of time to find out where everything is and adjust, but you adjust much faster this
One of the most difficult things to do, as a parent of a young child, is dropping them off for daycare. Some parents struggle more on the first day, and are fine afterward.
