Rocking Horse is a unique and exceptional place. A one-room-schoolroom where all 2.5 to 5 year olds engage with one another. My son went there, and I'm looking forward to sending my daughter next Fall. The group becomes a community of children where the older kids help guide the younger ones, who, in turn, benefit tremendously from the opportunity to model their slightly older friends. Andy and Judy, the directors, are truly gifted educators who create a stimulating, warm, nurturing, intimate environment in which the children thrive. They feel safe and free to develop their emergent sense of responsibility. In particular my son enjoyed the art activities, a morning ritual. Andy, himself an artist, guided him through many creative ventures. Note, however, that RH is not for those who are into "trendy." It is a truly substantial place where your child will learn, among other things, the value that lies within him/herself and those who lovingly help him/her grow. I can imagine no better introduction to learning.
