Little Stoltens can be the right fit for the families and children of Houston! Little Stoltens hosts early child care and education in a center-based program, giving families the benefits of a structured, stable, enriching learning environment alongside the community that comes with student peers and staff devoted to child care and early education. Centers like Little Stoltens are a popular choice for families that are comfortable expanding a student’s horizons beyond the family home or an in-home setting and getting the opportunities to explore. Moreover, the full-time schedule at Little Stoltens allows parents to get a structured learning environment for their children that’ll help develop cognitive and language skills during these most formative years. The full-time-schedule allows for full curriculums of play, fun and social time with peers and staff. Children will get to know their peers in-depth and form real bonds, which helps develop social and behavioral skills that’ll be important for kindergarten and the years ahead. Little Stoltens additionally takes a play-based approach to children's development and learning, facilitating education through interactive, hands-on activities that get children moving. Play-based environments structure their spaces to encourage students to move with independence, passion and explore at their own direction. Staff in these environments encourage and galvanize students to lean into their interests and build their own worlds in cooperation with their peers, and students gain cooperative, social and emotional skills as a result of these communal activities.
