la petite is the worst day care I've ever known. they play all day. to them you can't force a child to learn. if the child doesn't want to learn, they wont force them. No child would like to learn. children like to play all day. therefore it's the teacher's responsibility to design something interesting in order to attract the children. as expensive as childcare is, I believe they have to do something for parents to get their money's worth.
