Your child’s early years are magical -- full of discovery and wonder. You delight in their first steps, first words, first everything! Did you know that these years are also the most pivotal for brain development? By age five, 90% of your child’s brain will be developed. During this period, the brain is highly flexible and ready to learn, forming more than 1 million new neural connections every second! This critical (and fleeting) learning opportunity is brimming with potential, and managing it can feel like a daunting task without the right support.
Research consistently highlights the enduring positive impact a high-quality early childhood experience can have on a child's brain development, academic achievements, social-emotional development, and future success in life. With the huge responsibility of raising a child, and acknowledging that young brains develop significantly during this time, parents can easily feel overwhelmed. Good news -- the educators at Kiddie Academy-St. Louis are trained experts who can partner with you to make the most of these critical years of brain growth. Each day, their educators nurture, educate, and inspire, preparing your child for a lifetime of learning.
