Alex, aka Campo, has been around since the very beginning. Literally. He was in the first ever Compass summer camp in 2007 as well as with since we got the keys to the building. With a quick laugh and a golden retriever kinda attitude, Campo is heading up our Summer Camp program this summer starting today! He’s been chasing kids outside for the last four years and is now in charge of the whole thing. If you see him around ask him what his days adventure. We couldn’t do it without you Campo!

It's been a crazy week for Team Zebra. Do us a favor and avoid the Rattlesnake Lake area so the professionals can help Z get home. Thanks.

Way to go Campo! What a great story to tell at summer camp this year!

Passing motorists and residents in the area helped corral three of the zebras. One zebra is currently still on the loose.

Going to have to read this one. Pretty much the entire philosophy behind our crazy little company….

"The Importance of Being Little" by Erika Christakis offers profound insights into early childhood education and the development of young children.

Here are 10 lessons from the book:

1. Respect the Power of Play: Christakis emphasizes the importance of play in early childhood development. Play allows children to explore, experiment, and make sense of the world around them in a way that is meaningful and enjoyable.

2. Value Child-Centered Learning: Instead of imposing rigid academic standards on young children, prioritize child-centered learning experiences that are tailored to their individual interests, needs, and developmental stages.

3. Promote Inquiry-Based Learning: Encourage curiosity, critical thinking, and problem-solving skills by providing opportunities for inquiry-based learning. Allow children to ask questions, explore new ideas, and discover answers through hands-on experiences.

4. Create Nurturing Environments: Foster environments that are safe, nurturing, and supportive, where children feel comfortable taking risks, making mistakes, and expressing themselves freely.

5. Embrace the Power of Relationships: Recognize the profound impact of relationships on children's social, emotional, and cognitive development. Cultivate positive, responsive, and meaningful relationships with children, families, and caregivers.

6. Encourage Outdoor Exploration: Provide opportunities for outdoor exploration and nature-based learning experiences. Outdoor play promotes physical activity, sensory exploration, and connection with the natural world.

7. Support Social-Emotional Development: Prioritize social-emotional learning and create environments that support children's emotional regulation, empathy, communication skills, and conflict resolution abilities.

8. Value Unstructured Time: Allow for unstructured time and free play, where children have the freedom to follow their interests, engage in imaginative play, and pursue their own activities at their own pace.

9. Promote Multisensory Learning: Recognize that children learn through all of their senses and provide multisensory learning experiences that engage their auditory, visual, tactile, and kinesthetic modalities.

10. Advocate for Play-Based Education: Advocate for policies and practices that prioritize play-based education in early childhood settings. Recognize the inherent value of play as a fundamental human right and essential component of children's well-being and development.

These lessons from "The Importance of Being Little" by Erika Christakis provide valuable guidance for educators, parents, policymakers, and anyone interested in supporting the healthy development and education of young children.
