Learning Centers In Every Classroom For Child-Led Discoveries

Your child’s beautiful spacious classroom features discovery stations dedicated to specific topics and ideas. The carefully designed activities at each station invite your child to explore, practice, and master new skills. Inspiring child-led learning, even from the infants class, our learning centers focus on:

STEAM Activities Boost Cognitive Functions

As they explore their weekly themes, your child tackles activities and experiments that integrate STEAM (science, technology, engineering, art, and math). As they learn to observe, hypothesize, work in groups, and solve problems, they build vital neural pathways for future success.

Practical life Skills Foster Independence

Your child’s experienced teachers introduce age-appropriate self-care and social skills as they grow. Family-style dining at breakfast, lunch, and snack times encourages table manners and self-feeding. With child-sized toilet, sinks, tables, and chairs, your child feels comfortable and confident as they build the independence they need for school and beyond.

Field Trips Broaden Their Little Minds

Opportunities to meet local police officers or to explore a big red fire truck are a huge highlight and kiddos love the chance to get out and see their community. We’re proud to partner with the library for monthly story time, and they provide books for your child to bring home — building a love of reading.
