Barium Springs Home for Children recognizes that the first five years of a child's learning experience are crucial to future academic success. As children play, they gain creativity, language skills, and intellectual concepts. Play gives children the opportunity to interact with others and enhance physical development.

Trained in child development, the staff guides the children's play by asking open-ended questions and planning activities that encourage and enrich the child's learning process.
