The Honeybee Room has 10 children, ages 6 weeks to 20 months, with 3 teachers in the room at any given time. The teachers are Andrea Guy Aliaga, Dawn Casto, Kieauna Fuqua, Sophie Lubbers and Colleen Million.

We believe in an emergent, play-based curriculum, and enhance the children’s learning with daily “special” activities.  These are designed to meet the children’s specific interests and developmental stages. Our activities fall into three major categories: Body - which includes gross motor/large muscle activities; Mind - which includes hand-eye coordination, fine motor development, sensory, and literacy ideas; and Spirit - which encourages social and personal development.

We promote teacher-child communication, as well as language development, through the use of simple sign language. Signs such as “more”, “all done”, “stop” and “help” enable the children to communicate their needs, even though they may not have the words to tell us.
