Inventors (4-5 year olds)

Children Cooking

If there’s one thing a pre-Kindergarten child knows, it’s how to be inventive. But they’re also at a transition point in their lives and need support and guidance to make the process seamless. And our Inventors program establishes a more structured approach to learning and playing, combining class instruction and group activities with supervised play to ensure they’ll be prepared for the challenges they’ll face in Kindergarten.

​

Our program helps four and five year olds develop the critical thinking and problem solving skills necessary for success in Kindergarten, in addition to more complex social skills, math skills and language development. We’ve designed it to be immersive as possible, with plenty of hands on activities in addition to our educational curricula and reviews.

​

Our teachers provide assessments and progress reports every three months to keep parents informed on their child’s development.
