Peace Through Play Nursery School

There are many influences that drive the philosophy of

Peace Through Play Nursery School.

One is the book "Putting Children First" by Elizabeth Erwin, Ed.D professor at Montclair State College.  Another is “Because We Can Change The World” by Mara Sapon-Shevin, Ph.D and professor at Syracuse University, and most recently a book called “Child Honoring” by the world renowned children's artist and entertainer, Raffi Kervokian. These three influences speak cogently about how to create an inclusive world that honors, respects and is devoted to the rights of all children.

A GREEN SCHOOL

Peace Through Play Nursery School also follows a philosophy of Peace Education as a Montessori-based program and an eclectic approach to best practices in early childhood education preparing children and families for kindergarten and beyond.  NYS Licensed; large outdoor play area; music, movement and art with an emphasis on cooperative learning, socialization and pre-academic skills looking at each child’s individual abilities and growth.   We are very proud to be have been an NAEYC Accredited school for 15 years.
