We offer both an English and a Spanish Language Immersion Program. At Children's Garden, we believe very strongly that young children learn through talking and playing with peers in an environment that supports their efforts at socialization. We consider that a
ll of their time with us is a valuable learning experience and we structure our activities centered on their needs.
Our classrooms have many developmentally appropriate educational materials as well as games and picture books to help young children learn.
