[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]"glorified playgroup" - apparently you have not done much research on the play-based approach to early childhood education.  Why push academic on little kids, they will get that in kindergarten - it is good to have them explore learning while young so they can develop a lifelong curiosity and love of learning.  Some people seek out play-based schools, including myself... and I love the results in my child.  You might as well lump SfF into the same breath as Little folks, as it is proud to be playbased.[/quote]

Believe me, I have done plenty of research.  Any preschool where the AD touts the "coffee hour" for the Moms after dropoff as a critical component of the school, and in the same breath says that parents should not expect their children to learn to read at the preschool, is not, in my humble opinion, worthy of my children.  If you prefer to socialize with other G'Town moms who need moral support, be my guest.  But don't claim to have some empirical evidence supporting your decision to send a child to "play-based approach to early childhood education".  If you have such data, post it.  Otherwise, forgive me for being a little skeptical.[/quote]
