SUN Kids Resources

Play is the primary means of encouraging skill development, and children are given the opportunity to manipulate classroom materials and interact with each other. Our staff understands that children develop at their own rates and that new skills are acquired when they are developmentally ready. Our program focuses on child-directed, rather than teacher-directed, activities.

Through social interaction and play, children learn to share, respect others, problem-solve and understand how they can positively affect their environment. To support the student’s social/emotional development, SUN Kids uses Conscious Discipline. “Conscious Discipline® is a comprehensive classroom management program and a social-emotional curriculum. It is based on current brain research, child development information, and developmentally appropriate practices.”
