Hey y’all!
In case you didn’t know, MINI has expanded programming to include an elementary class for 6-12 year olds. We are about to wrap up our first year with an elementary, and it’s been a great experience!
We also have increased the age range for our summer camps now that we have an elementary program. We have some great half day camps, planned by Ms Jenny and Ms Derien, the elementary guide and assistant.
Topics appeal to the elementary child’s Active Imagination and Reasoning Mind. Children ages 6-12 are full of creativity, curiosity, adventure, and want to know “how” and “why.”
Magic, spies, mythical creatures, fairy tales, and the universe will spark their interest and satiate their intellectual hunger this summer! Working with their hands as they explore these topics will give them experiences they will never forget!
Spots are still available for 6-12 year olds and are open to the public. Visit minimontessoriofhouston.com for enrollment details.

Great news!
Ms Hope, our beloved primary assistant and professional musician, will be offering both piano & violin lessons at MINI this summer!
This a great way to continue your child’s musical education or get them started. Each private 30 minute session is $30, and she can guide both beginner and intermediate students. These classes are open to our MINI community and children who are not enrolled in our academic year program.
She’ll be seeing students from 1:00-4:00 PM on Tuesday afternoons during June & July at our museum district campus. If your child attends summer camp at MINI, it’s a great activity to add on afterwards!
Please text Ms Hope directly at (409) 218-1444 for more information or if you’d like to sign up!

Following the Child: Sometimes children come to school requesting to learn about a specific topic.
For one of our primary children, that topic was butterflies today. 🦋🦋🦋
