Fostering Independence as Early as Preschool
Independence is a survival skill, which is why fostering independence as early as preschool is vital. Little Lords and Ladies Learning Academy is a preschool in Orlando, Florida providing every child a safe, nurturing, and stimulating environment to teach them quality education including basic life skills like independence.
Reinforcing independence through repetition is the best way to condition your children to do simple things by themselves until independence becomes a part of their personality. Only an egoistic individual doesn’t like an independent person, so allow our child education programs and training to enhance your child’s ability to harbor self-awareness and value through these basic training:
- Take good care of their belongings.
We’ll train them to avoid misplacing, damaging, or losing their things by asking them to use their coloring materials lightly or to keep count of their pencils, so they’ll know if one is missing.
- Put things in their rightful places.
We’ll ask your child to put their backpacks on their armchairs or place their water bottles in the designated drinking area to minimize clutter and make things as organized as possible.
- Follow “CLAYGO”.
We’ll make “clean as you go” our motto in school to teach your child the importance of cleanliness and to train them to practice it independently by simply asking them to throw their garbage in the trashcan and clean up their eating utensils on their own.
- Practice self-help skills.
These self-help skills include using the bathroom, washing and drying their hands, and changing their school uniforms to their PE uniforms by themselves.
These are only some of them. Your children will experience the rest when you enroll them in our Christian preschool in Florida! Get in touch!
