OUR MISSION-PLAY-BASED EARLY CHILDHOOD EDUCATION LINCOLN, NE

At Creative Minds, an early childhood education center located in Lincoln, Nebraska, we believe in waiting to place our children in a classroom until they are ready. Our philosophy centers around play-based learning, where child-led exploration is key. We strive to build trusting relationships between teachers and children, encouraging educators to engage in flexible, on-the-spot planning while maintaining clear boundaries. This approach empowers children and values their ideas, effectively engaging them and helping them develop essential skills.

Our carefully designed learning environment features a variety of materials that support children's growth and development across all areas. We aim to foster independence and encourage children aged 30 months to 12 years to explore different styles of play. With nearly 6,000 square feet of space, we limit our enrollment to 75 children, ensuring that every child has ample room to explore, learn, and create.  

We meet each child at their developmental level, providing a stimulating, creative, and discovery-oriented environment where learning occurs naturally through play.
