Primrose Schools Thumbs Up!® Physical Development
WHY: Motor skills are important building blocks for physical activity.

• Your baby develops physical coordination and strengthens small and large motor skills by reaching for and picking up
objects, rolling, sitting, crawling, and finally walking.

Creative Arts and Expression
WHY: Visual and creative arts stimulate children’s imaginations and critical thinking skills which help in other areas of
learning and development.
• You may call it paint blots, we call it creative expression! Your child experiences sensory and small motor muscle
stimulation while expressing feelings and ideas.

• Your child begins to appreciate art techniques when using a variety of art media in a relaxed environment with nurturing
guidance from teachers.

Happy Hearts Character Development and Life Skills SM
WHY: Research shows that social-emotional intelligence is one of the best predictors of future success in school and in life.

• We believe who children become is as important as what they know.

• Infant teachers develop loving, nurturing relationships with your baby to develop a sense of security and trust, and to lay
the foundation for social-emotional skills later in life.

• Primrose Friends puppets come to life in a series of books that introduce your child to good character traits and skills.

Primrose Schools Harmony & Heart™
WHY: The first few years of life are important for developing musical aptitude and a love of
music, and can even help prepare children for learning reading and math in the future.

• Your infant listens to and moves to music throughout the day. Eventually they start making
musical sounds as they attempt to imitate the music they hear.
• Early music experiences support independence and social-emotional skills, and build new
pathways in the brain that can increase your child’s ability to learn math and reading.
