YMCA Playing To Learn
YMCA Playing to Learn is a national curriculum developed by the lead association, the YMCA of Greater-Toronto, that helps children in YMCA licensed preschool child care discover learning through creative play and aligns with primary school benchmarks
YMCA Playing to Learn provides an understanding of how play provides the foundation for learning to read and write, and for learning mathematics, science and technology. It provides early educators with the skills to prepare spaces that are more conducive to learning, and the best practices to encourage quality-learning experiences.
