Description: At Rainbow, we understand the importance of establishing a caring and trusting relationship with every child. That’s why your child’s days here at Rainbow will always start with warm hellos and end with loving goodbyes.
The early years of your child’s life are a time of tremendous development and learning. Our curriculum are specifically designed to cultivate children’s independent thinking, encourage their curiosity to learn, and support their physical development.
Here, at Rainbow, we believe in child-centered pedagogy or student-centered learning. Our program focuses on the children’s needs, abilities, interests and learning styles with the teacher as a facilitator of learning. We also strongly believe that young children learn best when they are provided with meaningful instructional experiences that build upon and connect with previous experiences in their everyday life. Hence, by relating math, science, social studies, and art experience to a child’s everyday life, the child will find the information much more interesting and stimulating. We strongly believe that a daily schedule of self-exploration and academic learning will help your child excel in the challenging world that she will face tomorrow.
We are thrilled to have state-of-the-art centers in the culturally-diverse borough of Queens, NY, and we take pride in our bilingual educational programs. All of the children at our Flushing location are exposed to both English and Chinese instruction throughout the day. At our new Fresh Meadows location, we are also offering free Chinese and Spanish lessons in our programs. You will be surprised at how much your child will learn!
It is an important decision that you are making today, please give us an opportunity to make a difference in your child’s life! Please call us today to schedule a free tour.
