Description
This is the time when children use their bodies, senses, and emerging problem-solving skills to learn about and make sense of their world in the ways most meaningful and effective for them. Our toddler educators give your toddler responsive, individualized attention to help build their skills. Activities range from the simple to the complex, with work areas arranged by subject. Montessori materials not typically found at other schools are used, as children choose activities based on their own interests. We focus on sensory and perception; self-help; language; physical and motor skills; social and emotional growth. We’re also here when you need us. Ask your school about flexible enrollment options to fit your family’s schedule.

Description
Learning revolves around tangible experiences. Practical life exercises like sorting, pouring, or washing dishes are introduced. Children also use concrete materials such as movable alphabets, cubes, cylinders, and other objects to learn. They learn to work together, with each others’ best interests in mind. This broad-based program allows children to explore a range of subjects and ideas: science and nature, music and movement, sensorial experiences, cooking and nutrition, cultural awareness, history; geography, language arts, and mathematics.

Parent Reviews
Our preschool-age son was among the first cohort at RVM in Excelsior, and we could not have been happier with our experience there! Beautiful, serene, newly-built space. Caring teachers and administration. He felt comfortable there from Day One. I was not familiar with the Montessori method before he started, but was so impressed to see how it helped him foster more independence in play and personal responsibility. I happily recommend RVM Excelsior to anyone. We miss it!
