Rocky Mountain Children's Discovery Center offers Early Childhood Education to children ages 6 weeks through age 12. We believe children learn best in a setting that respects, values and encourages all aspects of the physical, emotional, social and cognitive development of each individual child. We believe that children benefit from an interactive and play based approach to learning. We strive to

provide a climate that is inclusive in nature and reflective of the diversity of each child and family. We believe that families provide the foundation for learning. We believe that children need key experiences and adult support to grow and learn. We actively encourage a partnership with family members to enhance the potential of each child. We believe that the Rocky Mountain Children’s Discovery Center serves as a model in our community for collaboration and partnership development for the delivery of quality program services for children and families. We are proud of our status as a Qualistar rated preschool. We are proud to serve children who are enrolled in Early Childhood Special Education and in the Colorado Pre-school Program

The path to reading success starts long before children read their first words.

When young children sing, listen to stories, talk with caring adults, and explore books through play, they're building the literacy skills that support future learning.

That's why we created Word Wonders, a FREE early literacy and language curriculum for children ages 18–48 months.

- 20 play-based activities
- 10 original songs and rhymes
- Free to download

Help children build vocabulary, communication skills, listening comprehension and a lifelong love of books: https://bit.ly/4g9xeKx

While everyone is enjoying a beautiful Saturday morning, our amazing teachers are hard at work! ❤️

They’re spending their Saturday in training, learning more about early childhood assessment and strengthening their knowledge and skills to better support the children in their care.

We are so grateful for their dedication and commitment to our children and families. Thank you, teachers, for continuing to learn, grow, and make a difference! 🍎📚✨

No pot of gold required. 🌈 This Vroom Tip turns any walk into a brain-building rainbow scavenger hunt. Look for red, orange, yellow, green, blue, and purple together — and work as a team to find them all. It's a simple summer activity that sneaks in some serious pre-math skills!

Invite your child to go with you on a rainbow scavenger hunt! Encourage them to look around to find all the colors of the rainbow. You can say, "Do you see anything that's red, orange, or yellow?" "What about green, blue, or purple?" Work as a team to find all the colors!

What's the Brainy Background? 🧠 This game helps your child learn about putting things into categories. They have to figure out which objects are the same colors and which are different. By sorting information this way they're learning a pre-math skill! They're also learning to understand the world better. 💡

When babies thrive, communities grow stronger. Their potential is unlimited. The window of time to provide a child with the foundation for success is not. Join the movement and believe:
