Personalized Lesson Match Your Child’s Learning Style

Expert teachers use the Creative Curriculum® to teach your child everything they need to know in reading, writing, and math. They use hands-on and messy play to keep the fun in learning and prepare for their path to Kindergarten.

Open-Ended Play Reveals Their Creative, Problem-Solving Skills

Children love open-ended materials because of the possibilities they afford them. Using open-ended materials encourages imagination, creativity, and problem-solving skills, so play can be richer and more complex. This kind of play ensures rich learning and is fun!

Your Child Builds New Worlds With Loose Parts

With loose parts, children have the freedom and space to arrange, stack, count, sort, pull apart, and manipulate simple items to create their own rules without limit. They use creativity and interact with variables to strengthen both fine motor skills and cognitive function.

Your Child Practices Their Social-Emotional Skills Daily

Teachers use the Second Step® curriculum to show your child how to develop empathy, take turns, and communicate with gentle guidance. They are more than ready to advance to their next level and thrive in a classroom environment.

Healthy, Active Fun With Multiple Outdoor Play Times

Your child has outside time to breathe in the fresh air each day, let off steam, and maintain essential physical activity. They love to explore their natural environment in a beautiful garden, spend time with friends, and get to know themselves.

Teachers make sure you receive adorable pictures and videos directly to your phone through Brightwheel™. Essential updates and notifications give you peace of mind and ensure that you’re consistently a part of your child’s progress.
