                  Together, we can make a positive difference in the educational journey of children that will last a lifetime!
   Our Approach: is
                  to prepare pre-school children ages two through age five years for school readiness without struggle. 
                  Each child's learning style is considered and often used as a tool in introducing his or her curriculum.  These
                  various learning styles are carefully nurtured to enhance and develop a positive outlook toward learning.  It is documented that children who receive proper early childhood education
                  go on to not only thrive in school, but these children display a confidence, and positive attitude toward learning when given
                  an educational foundation as early as age one and a half.    Open Registration (240)605-4451   We are conveniently located in Temple Hills, Maryland   Schedule your consultation for placement today!   What are we reading this week?       Kindersteps celebrates 7 years of serving our community since

                  This Year, You Can Vote Twice!posted:November 1st, 2010  
                   On Election Day, you get to vote for the choices on the ballot – like them or not. 
 But this year,
                  through AmericanTowns, you can vote twice.
 When you go to vote, simply tell an assistant which important issues you want your elected officials to focus on after
                  the election. Give them your “zip plus 4” (or voting address), and they’ll send your message to each
                  of your elected officials. And if you want, they’ll press your representatives to report back to you on their progress
                  every month.

 KinderSteps bases it's curriculum from the learning styles method. 
                  "Learning Styles" are just that; The way each of us learns best.    Example: A child that is a tactile(Kinesthetic) style
                  learner will best learn to comprehend his or her alphabet by participating in an project where he or she can create an alphabet
                  character with their hands.   Tactile Style learners are people, adults and children who learn best through touching,
                  exploring, and using their hands or body to achieve goals. These people can be good at: sports, dancing, carpentry, crafts, playing instruments,etc.
