"Step inside" Children's Village! We've posted photos so you can take a closer look at our program in action.

Teachers include hands-on S.T.E.M. learning for students, including conducting experiments measuring and mixing materials and observing the results.

Children created an “Eat the Rainbow” fruit and vegetable collage.

As part of S.T.E.M. learning, preschoolers collected leaves and then matched them to those included in a book!

In light of health and safety protocols, Children's Village looks a bit different but our dedication to providing play-filled, meaningful educational experiences for children remains the same! We are committed to responding appropriately not only to the pandemic but also to the needs of children and families. 

Because we cannot welcome you to tour at this time, we are instead ‘opening the doors’ to you through photographs and a short video clip.  To give you a glimpse of our program in action, you'll find photos of children creating, discovering, learning, and playing!

(Photo gallery above) Recently in one of our preschool classrooms, some students were discussing various superheroes that they like. One of the children mentioned loving the masks, and that he didn't have any mask to play with at home. The teacher asked the children if they would like to create their own mask and everybody said yes! The teacher provided plain white masks, paper, scissors, markers, and various other crafts. The children spent time planning their design, observing each other, and creating their own masks during morning free play.

You'll also find our menus and other information to gain a sense of what the day looks like for children.  We will continue to add photos so please check back often!  In the meantime if you have questions about enrollment, please contact Beth Baker, Family Services Director, at (215) 931-0192.
