Our children don't know a world without technology - they're "digital natives". Technology is everywhere, and computers are embedded in nearly everything, and technology skills are 21st Century skills. But using technology is not the same as learning about it.
At CompuChild, we help children learn 21st century pre-engineering and problem-solving skills, including proper computer usage and Microsoft® applications like Word and PowerPoint. We also use digital cameras, microscopes, printers and more. Our curriculum is hands-on, interactive, cooperative, and fun, meets or exceeds National Technology Education Standards, and helps develop the whole child. In CompuChild class, technology education is more than child's play!
