Magical Minds Child Development Center

Curriculum
​
While we are primarily a play-based school, we set up the environment and provide children with materials in a very intentional manner that promotes collaboration, creativity, problem-solving and critical thinking skills. Children learn best through play and in a child centered, nurturing, inviting, and stimulating learning environment.
​
At Magical Minds Child Development Center, our curriculum is inspired by a combination of Maria Montessori and Reggio Emilia. We let children guide our curriculum with their interests and ideas and provide children with the environment, open-ended materials and scaffolding needed for them to confidently and independently explore their surroundings, develop their skills, and expand their knowledge about the world around them.
​
We follow a daily schedule and routines. This is an important element in a child's development, both at home and at school. Children learn best in a predictable environment where they know the routine and what to expect on a daily basis. Please refer to the daily schedule tab for details.
​
We will work on a wide range of activities, games, arts/crafts, music & movement, and much more. We will work on long term studies, based on children's interests and topics relevant to their every day lives (such as seasonally inspired themes) and activities/games/crafts will be created to support these topics of interest.
​
At Magical Minds, we value and embrace diversity and inclusion. We will celebrate all holidays and important events that represent each family in our community (including birthdays).
​
We also work on kindergarten preparedness and will meet the individual needs of each child, supporting all developmental milestones, in all areas of development. We will observe and document their growth/development and support them based on their abilities and needs.
