Our Curriculum
Joyful Kids Academy is a Montessori and Reggio Emilia approach inspired preschool, where you can find the best integration of the two philosophies and practices. Our curriculum is designed to help children develop their motor, language, sensory, cognitive, imaginative, and social skills. We set up different areas in the classroom that meet children’s developmental needs.
Motor Skill Development
The outside play area allows kids to use their bodies for jumping, climbing, riding, and playing games. This is good exercise for the body and the brain.
Language Development
Parallel language development through group time in two languages, play, and activities such as music, songs, story time, and show and tell.
Cognative Development
Work areas equiped with materials children can pour, write, draw, color, measure, and build .
Sensory Development
Area with sensory table where children can touch, smell, watch and listen to understand the senses.
Imaginative Development
Area equiped with dramatic play materials such as dress up, dolls, and kitchen. Materials change monthly to reflect different themes.
Social Development
Teacher guided large and small-group activities, as well as sharing. Snacks and lunch are served family style to reflect social life and needs.
