About
The Golden Apple offers a safe, fun & dynamic environment, focused on creating a complete skill set for your child’s needs. Our Mission behind our philosophy is to narrow down our classes, creating small groups (no greater than 6) so they can continue their academic years with self confidence & strong basic skills. We believe that with smaller groups, our students receive more in depth education from teachers, their social skills improve due to a tight circle of friends, and our attention to details is vital for your Early Learner’s academic jouney. .

Ages 1.5 - 5 Early Learning / Sensory Learning
What Is Multisensory Learning?
"Multisensory learning means learning through more than one sensory system at the same time. I suggest presenting information to infants using more than one sensory system. You can do this whether you are teaching your baby new words, about music, math, colors, or other concepts.
With multisensory learning, what your baby sees should match what she hears. Other sensory information should match as well."
Why Is It Important to Use Multisensory Learning?
"Babies often learn more with multisensory learning than they do through a single sensory system (Rose & Ruff, 1987). Children naturally use all of their senses when exploring their environments. For example, when learning about a toy, babies generally look at the toy, touch the toy, listen to sounds made by the toy, smell the toy, or put the toy in their mouths. Babies also often use movements to help them learn and this can help them gather additional information.
According to Edelman’s Theory of Neuronal Group Selection (a theory about brain development), more elaborate brain connections form when multisensory learning occurs compared to single sensory learning. Multisensory learning reaches visual learners, auditory learners, tactile learners, and physical or kinesthetic learners."

Learning is Social, Children work together to create knowledge, Acquire knowledge through their own explorations, Language drives thoughts. https://www.rasmussen.edu/degrees/education/blog/early-childhood-development/
"If you’ve ever spent time with young children, you already know they are amazing learners. They develop new skills and vocabulary at what seems to be a hundred miles per hour. Young children absorb information and learn in many different ways simultaneously.
For example, while a toddler is learning important physical skills and coordination—they’re also developing speech, studying social cues and learning emotional expression. It’s remarkable how much those little minds can take in at once. This is one of the many reasons early childhood education is so important.
If you’re a parent, you’ve probably heard quite a bit about some of these child developmental milestones already. Doctors, teachers, and all sorts of professionals who interact with kids keep an eye out for important changes as children grow. But even if you’ve studied up on early childhood development, keeping track of important milestones can seem overwhelming."
