Our Philosophy Statement
  Two by Two Christian Early Education Center incorporates an established program and curriculum designed to help children grow spiritually, emotionally, intellectually, socially, and physically (Luke 2:52). 
  Great effort, without pressure, is made to enable each child to attain his individual potential (Heb.3:13).
  Love of God, self and mankind is taught through classroom instruction and hands-on experiences (Mk.12:30-31).
  We believe that each child is special and unique and deserves individual care and attention (Psalm 139:13-16).
  We endeavor to give each child self-confidence through positive experiences, security through love and structure, and knowledge through quality curriculum (Dt.6:4-9).
 
Our Mission Statement
  Two by Two Christian Early Education Center is committed to guiding children into fellowship with God through Jesus Christ (Eph.6:4 b, Mt.19:24), developing Christian thinking through Biblical principles (2 Cor. 10:3-5, Phil. 4:8-9), and training godly living through the Holy Spirit, so that each child can achieve God's total purpose for their life (Mk 12:30-31).

"Just Playing"
When I'm building in the block room,
Please don't say I'm "Just Playing"
For, you see, I'm learning as I play;
About balance and shapes.
When I'm getting all dressed up,
Setting the table, caring for the babies,
Don't get the idea I'm "Just Playing."
For, you see, I'm learning as I play;
I may be a mother or a father someday.
When you see me up to my elbows in paint,
Or standing at an easel, or molding and shaping clay,
Please don't let me hear you say, "He is Just Playing"
For, you see, I'm learning as I play.
I'm expressing myself and being creative.
I may be an artist or an inventor someday.
When you see me sitting in a chair
"Reading" to an imaginary audience,
Please don't laugh and think I'm "Just Playing"
For, you see, I'm learning as I play.
I may be a teacher someday.
When you see me combing the bushes for bugs,
Or packing my pockets with choice things I find,
Don't pass it off as "Just Play."
For, you see, I'm learning as I play.
I may be a scientist someday.
When you see me engrossed in a puzzle,
Or some 'plaything' at my school,
Please don't feel the time is wasted in "Play."
For, you see, I'm learning as I play.
I'm learning to solve problems and concentrate.
I may be in business someday.
When you see me cooking or tasting foods,
Please don't think that because I enjoy it, it is "Just Play."
I'm learning to follow directions and see the differences.
I may be a chef someday.
When you see me learning to skip, hop, run, and move my body,
Please don't say I'm "Just Playing."
For, you see, I'm learning as I play.
I'm learning how my body works.
I may be a doctor, nurse or athlete someday.
When you ask me what I've done at school today,
And I say, "I Just Played."
Please don't misunderstand me.
For, you see, I'm learning as I play.
I'm learning to enjoy and be successful in my work.
I'm preparing for tomorrow.
Today, I'm a child and my work is play.
