Outside to feature bîke paths, play huts, bird houses efrom MCRCS on page B3 the children were instead taken outside with cliphoards to draw what they saw happening. "It really picks up 011 the children's interests," Williamson noted. 1I think parents will be impressed with the type of work their kids are capable of doing (under Reggio Amelia)." Another aspect of the teaching approach is giving children real materials to use in their work, she said, such as dlay and pine cones for their art projects. "Their work ts important, soi we need to give them good quality products," she said. And while its commonly thougbt parents have to put their children in the public school system for krndergarten, Williamson said thats an old wives7 tale. She explained the cbild care centre will be run like a school, complete with a full currculum and report cards. The building itself features lots of unique touches designed with children in mind, sucb as ground-level sinks for water play and shelves specifically for drymng artwork. Youngsters who attend the centre will alsoi be able to eat Ieas in tbeir own dining room. mev tnied to think of evervthing,- Wilhiamson said. The calming paint colours and lamînate flooring were chosen to give the building that bome-away-from-bome feel. Outsîde, a traditional playground is replaced by a nature- focused Playscape. wbich will include tbîngs like bike patbs, play huts, a bird viewing but, bird bouses and a community garden.
