2. Friends—helps introduce children to the world beyond their families

3. Play—supports the enthusiasm of children for exploring ideas on their own

4. Mastery—discovering success and the feeling of being good at a skill

5. Participation—creating environments that maximize learning, growth and physical activity

We also follow the three design guidelines:

1. Developmentally appropriate activities
