Preschool in Brooklyn, NY 11201
At Kiddie Korner we endeavor to
Encourage your child to make choices with respect towards him/herself others and his/her surroundings. This helps develop your child’s self esteem self-efficacy and belief in him/herself. Nourish your childs heart and mind as we develop cognitive social emotional and physical skills so that your child will be a well-rounded person capable of solving problems and adapting to new situations. Educate your child in a creative supportive and warm Jewish environment so that your child will not only learn about life as a Jew but will learn to love it too!Kiddie Korner seeks to create a stimulating and enriching educational environment for each and every child. The school is devoted to helping children learn socialization skills building their self-confidence and teaching them the preliminary skills to explore and experience the world independently from their parents. Our goal is to provide children with the early foundation and framework to prepare them for the transition to elementary school. In addition we seek to ignite a spark in each child to lay claim to his Jewish heritage and commit him or her to a lifetime passion for learning.

The school faculty consisting of highly trained professionals concerns itself with the individual development of each child. We feel that no child should be forced beyond their readiness level and all children need the time place and opportunity to develop into competent individuals. In addition we assist the children in pursuing their questions extending their experiences and then to invest importance in those experiences. Discussing with the children the implications of their questions we thereby enable them to realize the power to deal with and to adapt to the realities of their own environment.
The staff reinforces the philosophy of developing each child’s self-worth and provides a total conceptual learning experience at their own particular developmental level.
We present opportunities for physical social and intellectual growth in a program providing the following modules: quiet time and activity contemplation and creativity as well as work and fun. The program will invite exploration discovery problem-solving and academic achievement at the developmental level of each individual child.
We understand the importance of imagination and the emerging intellect of children and we promote the creative problem solving abilities of each child. We do this by taking care not to make any excessive or unreasonable demands upon the child.
We are here to help facilitate our children to become learners rather than achievers or performers. A performer does everything he or she can to “please” the teacher or parent. A learner is a child who is excited about the world filled with wonder love joy and a sense of fun.
“The goal of education” said Jean Piaget a noted psychologist “is not to increase the amount of knowledge but to increase the possibilities for a child to invent and discover to create people who are capable of doing new things.”
If we can give each child a lifelong love of learning then we have indeed succeeded!
