NO parent is willing to see his or her own kid fall behind from the very beginning - they always want their beloved babies to learn more, so that their little guys can achieve a good position in this competitive world when they grow up.
As parents plan for their children to start learning earlier and earlier, traditional kindergartens cannot satisfy such needs. Therefore, early education, also called pre-school education, comes to play and provides good options for young parents.
Early education refers to education for 0-6 years olds. For a very long time early education has been considered as an important element to the future success. Now, the rapid social and economic development in China also makes early education more and more important to parents.
Here are some early education centers in the city.
Elite Baby
This early education center has dozens of branches in the country, and in Shanghai there are 12.
It provides classified courses for children of different ages, including four series - Baby Play series and Baby Star series for up to two and a half; Pre-Baby MBA series for two and a half to three; Baby MBA series for three to six years old.
While Baby Play series focuses on the development of a baby's senses, movement and creativity, Baby Star series is more comprehensive, to inspire baby's potentials in language, mathematics and logic, space, body movement, music, communication, self-knowledge and observation ability.
The series of Pre-Baby MBA and Baby MBA introduces the interactive games in MBA courses combined with a multimedia lecture system to make learning fun. The center also has courses for expat kids.
