MKU Homewood Programs

Infant Program

At MKU Homewood, our infant care environment is cozy, warm, and specially designed for mobility.

Toddlers

The toddler years are the time when children use their bodies, senses and emerging problem-solving skills to make sense of their world, in ways  most meaningful and effective for them.

Pre-Primary

Our Pre-Primary program is far more than childcare or a traditional classroom. While your little ones will be in a safe, age-appropriate setting, they’ll also be able to satisfy their curiosity and learn about the world around them.

Primary
Program

The MKU Primary program offers a unique, mixed-age classroom environment, for children approximately 3 to 6 years old. Here, children engage in individual learning experiences, as well as one-on-one learning experiences which are integral to the Montessori method.

 

Around the World Curriculum

During the summer our children pack their suitcases, grab their passports, and take a fantasy trip through-out the world in our Around-the-World summer curriculum.

 

Davinci
Kids

DaVinci Kids, the MKU proprietary enrichment curriculum was developed with the objective to foster creativity in our children through the arts and sciences.

 

MKU Enrichment

Learning in our schools extends far beyond basic language development and building foundational mathematical skills. Extending beyond the traditional elements of the Montessori classroom, at Montessori Kids Universe we offer our students a wide range of MKU enrichment activities. Each of the enrichment activities that we offer provides a different benefit and a different experience.

 

Kids Yoga | MKU | Montessori Kids Universe | Montessori Activities - Preschoolers & kids | Montessori

Yoga

Yoga has many benefits that we believe are important for our students. Physically yoga enhances flexibility, strength, coordination and body awareness. Mentally, yoga improves concentration and provides a sense of calmness and relaxation.

Gardening | MKU | Montessorik Kids Universe | Montessori Activities - Preschoolers & kids | Montessori

Gardening

Children love planting and harvesting fruits and vegetables in our schools. Watching the plants in our beautiful gardens come to life and then enjoying the fruits of their labor! Our MKU children enjoy working in our gardens several times per week.
