Discover Magical Moments takes pride in its quest for safety and security and has researched many different playground options and decided on a large outdoor play area with the state of the art "Soft Tile Channel Lock" ground covering system, and a large indoor playroom/gym/storm shelter. Our outdoor playground includes both a small and large climbing system, playhouse, water table, sandbox, games area, basketball ring, etc. for many hours of fun outside. And when the weather doesn’t cooperate for outdoors play then we have the indoor playroom/gym/storm shelter to pick from with more options of gross motor activities for all ages. All extra-curricular activities such as dance class, field trips for school-age and preschool groups, sign language, and cooking classes, etc. are all included in our child care rates. We feel strongly that all children who attend Discover Magical Moments should be given the exact same opportunities so we include all activities into our rates. Discover Magical Moments Daycare center also takes pride in following extensive cleaning procedures daily and has a child safety security system in place.
