How is Spark Playschool unique?
"Not your average neighborhood preschool."
Spark Playschool follows childrens' natural play and curiosities....a technique Ms. Holly coined Playquiry™.
As children play, natural wonderings and questions arise. Being an experienced & adaptable teacher, Holly effortlessly weaves higher level thinking, Spanish, Sign Language, Literacy & Numeracy into childrens' play.
