The Learning Tree

The Learning Tree Since 1988, The Learning Tree has been a trusted source for high-quality early childhood education in our community.

Join us as we help each child grow, learn, and flourish every step of the way! The environment has a sense of wonder, experimentation, thinking, socialization and connection with nature and culture. Documentation is used to see, reflect and revisit ideas, feelings and experiences. Visual arts (the hundred languages of children such as art, dramatics music, etc) are used to have children express th

emselves and learn. Observation and listening are used to promote an emergent curriculum of in depth topics based on the child & teacher's interests. Parent involvement is used to support learning. The Learning Tree services nearby communities including Lake Zurich, Barrington, Island Lake, Wauconda, Kildeer and Deer Park.

* Highly qualified longevity of teachers
* Attentive to parent's needs
* Established in 1973
