Creative Minds believes that play-based learning is the most effective approach to early childhood education. It supports children's cognitive, social, emotional, psychological, and physical development. This method emphasizes learning through exploration, investigation, and discovery.
We are committed to child-led learning, guided by our dedicated teachers who enhance the educational experience by fostering children's natural curiosity. This approach encourages children to experiment, explore, problem-solve, and engage in meaningful activities while individualizing their learning goals.
Our strategy prioritizes developmentally appropriate practices, includes embedded learning opportunities, takes advantage of teachable moments, and incorporates real-life experiences. Our non-traditional early childhood education center focuses on preschool-age children, using a play-based approach to curricular activities that align with the Nebraska Early Learning Guidelines.
Play-based learning allows children to learn through engaging play, promoting exploration, discovery, and skill development in a fun and natural way. This approach benefits children by enhancing their social-emotional, cognitive, language, and self-regulation skills, all of which are critical for their overall development.
Our spacious center accommodates up to 75 children, aged 30 months to 12 years. With nearly 6,000 square feet of space, our learning environment allows us to provide ample areas for primary learning centers and various educational activities.
We feature a significant creative and visual arts area, a dedicated sensory space, and a dramatic playroom where children can immerse themselves in imaginative scenarios while learning essential life skills through play. In addition, we have an extensive area for mathematics, manipulatives, blocks, building activities, games, and free play, ensuring that children thrive across all curriculum areas and developmental domains while gaining independence and exploring different play styles.
We also offer a designated area for cooking classes and other life skills courses.
At Creative Minds Early Learning Center, we take pride in our transparency. Our goal is to make high-quality learning accessible and affordable for all families. Your child's tuition includes ALL activities, materials, enrollment fees, deposits, breakfast, lunch, and snacks. You can rest assured that there are no hidden fees associated with our center. Additionally, we offer a thirty-minute free grace period after closing. It truly takes a village, so let’s work together!
