Montessori Children's House

Kind a chic at MCH

If you asked the campers what they did today, you'd probably hear something like, "We ran around pretending to be animals."

Accurate. 😂

This week in Paws, Claws & Jaws, they've been sprinting, dodging, chasing, escaping, and working together through wild animal-inspired games. It's part soccer, part survival, and 100% the kind of summer every kid deserves.

We may be tired just watching them. ⚽🐾

A few weeks ago, our campers turned plain white shirts into colorful tie-dye creations using a little art, a little science, and a lot of creativity. Now comes the best part... wearing them to school!

There's something special about seeing children proudly wear something they made themselves. It's a fun way to celebrate creativity, build confidence, and show that learning can become something you can take with you wherever you go. 🌈

Throwback Thursday! A 40-year legacy of outdoor education!

Almost 40 years of outdoor education has been at the heart of Montessori Children's House. Generation after generation of children have built confidence, curiosity, and respect for the natural world through hands-on experiences. These photos are a wonderful reminder that some of the most meaningful lessons happen when children connect with nature and its animals.

FREE BUNNIES! We are looking for homes for 3 baby bunnies. These babies were born at MCH and have been taken care of by our team over the last few weeks. While we don't know the gender of these bunnies, they are already bonded and can be adopted individually or in pairs. They are not spayed or neutered, so this will be up to the families to decide on.

If you're interested or have any questions, please reach out to [email protected]. Our farm manager or facilities director will be able to help answer any questions about care that you may have as well.

One simple activity. So many steps.

When toddlers wash baby dolls, they're doing far more than playing. They gather water, make soapy bubbles, carefully wash their baby, rinse, dry them with a towel, and then put everything back where it belongs.

Each step builds concentration, sequencing, independence, and responsibility. Children are learning to follow a process from beginning to end while caring for both their environment and something entrusted to them.

What looks like play is actually purposeful work, helping toddlers develop confidence one small step at a time.

The Summer Days campers in Early Childhood are making tie-dye shirts today, and no two are alike! We can't wait to see how they turn out.

Stay tuned for the finished creations! 🌈

We don’t remember enrolling Jimothy, but he seems fully committed to the MCH Summer Days camp experience, and we thinking we’ll let him stay as long as he wants!

What a week at Summer Days Camp!

Carnival Creations was filled with art, music, movement, and imagination. As children made maracas, balanced, juggled, created colorful projects, and enjoyed a magic show from Taylor Kyle, they were building coordination, focus, problem-solving skills, and the confidence to try something new.

The best part? They were having so much fun they didn't even realize how much they were learning.
