Welcome to Moozie's Play Group Program
“The environment must be rich in motives which lend interest to activity and invite the child to conduct his own experiences.”
― Dr. Maria Montessori
Toddler Time
This will be a Caregiver & Me class for littles 18-28 months of age. We will meet on Tuesday mornings from 9:30am - 11:00am. During this time we will observe our littles and explore new and fun ways to play with age appropriate toys using Montessori Methods and materials. We will have circle time, snack time as well as parent discussion time in each class. Classes will be $25 per class.
Pre-registration is now taking place for our Spring Session. If you are interested in joining
our Play Group please contact us for more information.
Play Group
Morning Session: Monday's & Wednesday's - 9:30 am ~ 11:30 am
Afternoon Session: Choose Monday, Tuesday or Wednesday - 1:00 ~ 3:00 pm
This program utilizes Montessori Methods that encourage children to learn through play in a
mixed aged group of children 2 1/2 to 5 years of age.
Moozie's Play Group is the first step in a goal that we hope will ultimately evolve into
a fully certified Montessori School Program.
In our program your child will learn grace and courtesy as well as how to "help themselves" .
Self-care skills will be an integral part of our daily curriculum encouraging children to develop self-confidence.
Rich and orderly environments (also known as a "prepared environment") tailored to this age group will teach respect
for all people and things which results in better self control and enhanced social skills. Children will learn in a mixed aged classroom that provides them with the freedom to seek out their own interests and encourages them to
learn at their own pace with very little prompting. In this type of learning environment children can develop
important social skills and discover what interests them.
We are very excited about this program for many reasons.
We hope you will be too!
