Tots splash and learn at KU
By DeAnn Thomas
Staff writer
Taking a break from their routine activities at the Hilltop Child Development Center, 3134 Jaiyah Blvd., Janet Stallard had her kindergarten and first-grade children put on their swimsuits and walk to the Chi Omega Fountain for a cool dip in the water.
Splashing in the fountain is just one of several activities that children at the center enjoy at the University of Kansas.
Joan Reiber, director of the center, and Elizabeth Goetz, director of the Child Development Laboratory Preschool in Haworth Hall and a professor of human development and child psychology, said Monday that she provided many sights and places for recreation and child education.
During the summer, 144 children, ranging in age from 15 months to 11 years, enroll at the center. The preschool enrolls about 140-30 to
5-year-olds. It doesn't offer a program for children in the first through fifth grades during the summer.
Inth grade learns
Children of all ages at the centers often tour or play at different places on campus.
"The acre of original prairie grass is just up the street from Haworth," Goetz said.
The preschoolers can observe Kansas history and different types of architecture, animals and plants during their walks on the campus, Goetz said.
The activities of the day-care centers revolve around a weekly theme. This week the 7 to 11-year-olds at Hillwill visit the Space Technology Center in Nichols Hall on West Campus.
"They made robots from foil, covered boxes and Styrofoam cups." Laurie Rothschild, Hilltop teacher, said. The robots were a project she used to prepare the children for the trip.
Classes at both centers may spend
a day at Potter Lake with a picnic lunch, observing the fish, ducks and plants as part of a nature theme.
As part of food and nutrition week, the 2- and 3-year-olds at Hilltop will visit the bakery at the Kansas Union this week to see how food is prepared.
The 4- to 6-year-olds visited the police department and post office.
Reiber said the children had visited the KU animal care unit for animal week and would visit Walkins Hospital during health and emergenc
The children at the preschool make many of the same trips. Both Goetz and Reiber said KU faculty were nice and helpful in arranging and performing the tours for the children. The children usually got treats such as cookies or fruit from the places they visited.
Goetz and Reiber said all the trips had to be preplanned. When the children tour the Museum of Natural History, it is usually to see a specific exhibit, such as the rocks or the snakes.
