Our Learning Pods are made up of 90-minute drop-off classes, offered 1 - 4 days per week.. The Early Learning Pods are designed for preschool ages (2-4 years), while the Afterschool Pods are designed for Pre-K, Kindergarten, or First grade students. All pods have a maximum capacity of eight students, to make sure that your child receives plenty of direct attention from their teacher!

The curriculum for each Learning Pod is based on our Preschool and Pre-K programs, which combine the time-tested Montessori methods with the age-appropriate curriculum, as well as the latest educational tools from Early Childhood Education experts. Each pod is designed to introduce young students to the major subjects that they will learn in school—Language, Literacy & Phonics, Math, Science, Geography, and more. Additional emphasis is placed on Creative Arts, Music, Movement, Sensory, and other important developmental subjects. Our teachers are also sure to incorporate plenty of hands-on learning activities!

Playgarden Prep Learning Pods are the best way to instill an early love of learning while working on socialization skills, as well as the ability to adapt to a formal classroom environment.
