I’ve always said that the most serious impediment to educational progress during the early years is the refrigerator door. Too many parents want to see tangible evidence that their little one is learning something. That is, they want to be handed a worksheet or project that they can take home and hang on the refrigerator door with magnetic fruit so they can say, “See! My child learned his letters!

A lot of modern mothers and fathers are concerned about their preschooler’s penchant for toy guns. Even if they forbid their little one to possess such items, they become alarmed when he finishes his Popsicle, points the stick, and exclaims, “Bang…you’re dead!”
What parents need to realize is that this fascination with firearms has little to do with “violence” and everything to do with “power.” Preschoolers are small creatures in a big world where they certainly are not in charge and typically have minimal control over what 
happens to them. Consequently, they are drawn to fantasy activities that give them the feeling that they are a force to be reckoned with.
The solution is to encourage activities in which their preschooler can fantasize about being powerful without having to be inappropriately violent. It is even better if the child can imagine using his powers to be helpful rather than destructive. Many classes at Romp n’ Roll provide precisely that type of opportunity. If you are not currently enrolled, we invite you to schedule a free trial class to see how we work imaginative play into our weekly lesson plans!
We are gearing up for another great summer of classes and summer camp at Romp n’ Roll. Summer classes at Romp n’ Roll are a great opportunity to maintain (or begin) a little routine in the laid back summertime. Romp n’ Roll classes provide the perfect combination of learning and fun that keep young minds and bodies active and engaged over the summer.
Our class schedule changes a bit over the summer due to our Summer Camp. Camp at Romp n’ Roll meets Tuesday and Thursday mornings (days may vary by location so check our camp page for more information). But we still have plenty of gym classes, art classes, and music classes throughout the week.
Be sure to review our schedule and sign up for a summer class with your child – we look forward to seeing you!
