A Unique Approach to Early Childhood Education


Our play-to-learn curriculum is at the heart of what sets Shining Stars Learning Academy apart. We believe that children learn best when they're actively engaged in the learning process. Our curriculum is designed to be interactive, hands-on, and tailored to the individual needs and interests of each child at our daycare in Laredo, Texas.


Crafted by a Texas Board-Certified Teacher


What makes our curriculum truly special is the expertise behind it. Every aspect of our curriculum has been meticulously crafted by our Texas board-certified teacher. With years of experience in early childhood education, our teacher brings a wealth of knowledge and a deep understanding of the developmental needs of young children. This translates to every part of the day that your child experiences at our childcare center.


Holistic Childcare Development


Our curriculum goes beyond traditional academic learning. We focus on holistic development, incorporating elements that foster cognitive, social, emotional, and physical growth. Through carefully designed activities, we aim to create well-rounded individuals who are not only academically prepared but also socially and emotionally resilient.

Our curriculum is organized around exciting and engaging themes that capture the curiosity of young minds. From exploring nature to diving into space, each theme provides a context for learning that makes education fun and relatable.


Real-world Connections


We celebrate the rich tapestry of cultures that make up our community. Our curriculum goes beyond traditional boundaries by integrating diverse cultural traditions into the learning experience. From exploring global festivals and holidays to incorporating culturally diverse stories and music, we aim to foster an environment of acceptance and appreciation for different backgrounds. By exposing children to a variety of cultural traditions, we promote understanding, empathy, and a sense of unity, preparing them to thrive in an interconnected world. Our commitment to cultural diversity not only enriches the educational experience but also instills values of acceptance and inclusivity that last a lifetime.


Embracing Cultural Diversity in Childcare


Use positive reinforcement to create excitement about their upcoming adventure. Talk about the fun activities they'll get to experience, the new friends they'll make, and the caring teachers they'll meet. Frame daycare as an exciting opportunity for growth and learning.


Extending the Play-to-Learn Approach at Home


Parental Involvement


Parents play a crucial role in reinforcing the play-to-learn approach at home. We encourage parents to engage in their child's learning journey by participating in classroom activities, attending parent-teacher meetings, and staying informed about their child's progress.


Creating a Learning Environment


Set the stage for continued learning at home by creating a stimulating environment. Provide age-appropriate books, educational toys, and opportunities for hands-on exploration to support your child's curiosity.


Incorporating Play into Everyday Activities


Learning doesn't have to stop when the school day ends. Turn everyday activities into learning opportunities by incorporating play. Whether it's counting during mealtime or exploring shapes during playtime, there are endless ways to make learning a part of daily life.
