January 4, 2018 After being to many visits to other preschools, I have 100% been floored by the level of consistency, caring, human nature of this establishment. Ms. Susan and her associates have been so incredibly receptive to all learning styles. They make me feel comfortable in the choices I make for my son, as well as being an incredible example of empowering, empathy and kindness in their work. I have seen more immediate and immense progress in my child’s development due to their upmost high standards in curriculum partnered with compassion and understanding in human nature. Could not ask for a better place to help mold my son into a wonderful compassionate intelligent human, creative world is the place to be. Such great teachers, so many phenomenal humans who invest 100%. LOVE THE PLACE! Joshua Wahrer
December 28, 2017 I shopped around because my child’s care matters to me... this place is TOP notch! Small classes, good play areas, great curriculum, engaging and qualified staff; I really have kept my son here for a reason. He has some speaking difficulties and they have worked with him, and assisted our family in getting him the correct care. Can’t recommend Ms. Susan and her establishment enough. I wanted to share how wonderful the Creative World program and pre-k has prepared our son Mason. He took his assessment yesterday and was the only child that could write his first and last name using upper and lower case correctly. We appreciate the quality of education and the preparation Creative World has given to our son. Once again thank- you for providing our son with the tools and confidence, to be successful in kindergarten next year!!!
Thank you for hiring excellent teachers, to provide a nurturing, fun, and safe learning environment Over the past three years we have felt so pleased supported and comforted by the level of love and kindness we have received at Creative World. Our initial decision to attend Creative World did not come easily and upon meeting Susan I quickly saw and identified her passion for developing and teaching children. Susan was all the things that I was not, organized, structured and clean. We have been delighted by the art, the music and social development of our son. We loved the play space both indoor and outdoor and the wonderful and engaging learning environments of all the classrooms. These years have been wonderful for our son, and I confidently say that Creative World has played and instrumental and important role in preparing our son for kindergarten. Thank you!

Being physically active is just as important for children as it is for adults. Adults use exercise to to overcome health issues. Children who are exposed to exercise at a younger age reduce the likelihood of health risks.
Creative World Academy promotes exercise by offering many physical activities necessary for your child’s growth to become happier and healthier. Martial Arts Outdoor Activities Swimming Dancing Soccer Gymnastics Planning a vacation with a preschooler can be very difficult. It can be the time of their life, but it’s always a challenge to keep them entertained. The main thing to keep in mind when planning your trip is to factor in extra time and try to be flexible with your schedule. They’re always going to be curious about the world around them, so you need to give them plenty of time to explore. This will make them happy and you will also enjoy watching them having a good time. Although it is tempting to just pack up and leave, there are a few things that need to be considered before you go.
In the days or even weeks leading up to your big vacation, try to get them excited about their destination by showing them pictures and books. This will ensure that they are not surprised when they arrive and will be able to adjust quickly. When the adventure has begun, keep in mind that even with preparation, your preschooler is going to be overwhelmed with changes in schedule and environment. To limit the anxiety that comes with this sudden change, try to stick with a few of your basic routines like sticking to your normal nap schedule and trying to eat meals at your normal times. If you can give them a little comfort in knowing what might come next in their day, you can spend the time in between these set events simply enjoying your time together. Overall, vacation with a preschooler can be fun for everyone if you take the time to prepare. There will be stressful moments for you, but keep in mind that this will be a memory that you will cherish forever! Contributed by WG Business Engagement Program guest bloggers. Moving to a new home can create stress and excitement for both parents and children. We recommend using a lot of communication in the process. Let your children participate in as much as possible--from the home search, to selecting a real estate agent, to moving in. Children, even as young as 3 and 4 years old, can contribute a lot. They can surf through pictures of home and quickly indicate their preferences. You might be relieved to find that your child is more interested in that house with the pink bedroom than the house with the pool, or that your child would rather have that big tree in the back yard than the 3 car garage. If your child feels included in the process, she'll have a chance to give valuable input that will make the move less stressful.
Walk your child through the steps of saying good-bye to the old home and neighborhood. If the move is across several states or cities, you may want to brainstorm a list of friends or parks to visit one last time. Let your child blow a kiss, give hugs or verbally say good-bye. And then talk about how you'll be needing to find new parks and new friends in the new location. Giving your child the words will boost their confidence. Teach your child the words for the relevant cities and states: Reno, Nevada. The first stop in your new town should be the library and the park nearest to your home. These can act as a home base, not only in this town, but in any future relocations. Restore your child's room with the favorites: blanket, stuffed toy, picture on the wall, night light. Show your child that it can be exciting to get NEW things, as well as rely on the cherished favorites. You don't need to be in a hurry to unpack all the toys or decor. Allow your child (and yourself) to slowly integrate into the new home. Take advantage of those open, empty spaces in those first few weeks, and fill them with quality family time rather than furniture! Welcome to the neighborhood! Susan Baker is our Assistant Director.
