The day begins at 9:00 a.m. with a group gathering on the line, also known as the ellipse, where children are welcomed through songs, stories, and calendar activities. This time is also used to introduce new concepts and materials in a warm and engaging setting. Following group time, children transition into a work cycle where they choose activities independently or in small groups. During this period, teachers guide and support each child’s learning, presenting new materials and reinforcing skills as needed.
Our Pre Casa program is thoughtfully designed to support the unique developmental needs of the toddler child and is offered at both of our campuses. The classroom environment reflects Montessori principles of beauty, simplicity, order, and purpose, where every element is carefully prepared at the child’s level to encourage exploration and independence.
At Creative Minds Montessori Academy, children are offered a rich selection of hands-on activities that respond to their individual stage of development. Through meaningful interaction with materials, toddlers gain a sense of accomplishment and begin to develop independence, confidence, and a love of learning. Everyday tasks such as hanging up their coat, pouring water, and caring for their environment help foster a growing belief of “I can do it.”

Outdoor play is an important part of the day, offering children time to explore and stay active. In warmer months, water play is often included. Toddlers enjoy a nutritious snack before heading outside.
Throughout the week, children also participate in enriching activities such as Music and French.
Our goal is to provide a safe, engaging space where children feel supported and valued, every single day.
