Any parent knows I Can Do It is the hymn of the increasingly
independent three-year-old child. This program promotes the child's
independence, imagination and creativity. Three-year-olds are becoming
interested in ac tivities with structure. Language, reading readiness and
socialization skills are integrated in daily activities. Children are encouraged
to speak in sentences and identify colors and shapes. Further, they will gain a
love of children’s literature and begin to recognize individual letters of the
alphabet. The I Can Do It program helps each child put all of
his/her new skills together to promote a feeling of competency and confidence.
We recognize that children frequently test limits and our caregivers minimize
restrictions unless children are in danger. We recognize that the best way to
accomplish this goal with children is through praise and positive
reinforcement. Our caregivers are skilled in redirecting a child
from inappropriate behaviors to actively engaging them in other more appropriate
behaviors.
