We hope our Apple family stays safe & dry this weekend as the bad weather moves in! ☔☔☔

But did you know? Rainy days are a perfect opportunity to slow down, get cozy, and create meaningful moments with your child at home. Instead of turning to screens or feeling cooped up, you can embrace the Montessori philosophy by offering hands-on activities that spark curiosity, independence, and creativity.

Here are some simple and engaging Montessori-inspired activities to try the next time the weather keeps you indoors:

Here are some ideas for Montessori-inspired fun you can have at home.

Each year on September 21, people around the world recognize the International Day of Peace—a day devoted to strengthening the ideals of peace within ourselves, our communities, and the world. 🤍

At Apple Montessori Schools, peace is more than something we celebrate on one special day. It is an important part of the Montessori philosophy and something children practice throughout the year.

The deadline to enroll your child in TinkRworks and have them join for the first project is fast approaching! Let your director know your child would like to participate by this coming Monday, September 14 so they get in on Pushes, Pulls, & Pins, which will run Oct. 5-Nov. 27.

TinkRworks, offered as an add-on program for children ages 4+, blends science, technology, engineering, art, and math (STEAM) into engaging, project-based experiences that encourage children to build, experiment, invent, and create. More than just a STEAM program, it's an opportunity for children to strengthen their critical thinking, creativity, and confidence while having fun bringing their ideas to life.

A new school year brings fresh routines, new classrooms, and exciting opportunities to grow. It can also be the perfect time to return to the basics and reflect on the purpose behind the learning taking place each day. For families who are new to Montessori, the classroom may look different from what they remember from their own childhood or from other centers they may be visiting. Children may be working independently or in small groups. They may choose an activity from a shelf, carefully carry it to a table or rug, and repeat it several times before returning it to its place. The room feels calm and purposeful, yet there is plenty of movement, conversation, discovery, and joy.

Every part of that experience is intentional. Montessori education is designed around the way children naturally learn, through hands-on exploration, meaningful choices, repetition, and growing independence. Join us for a Montessori refresh now on the blog:

Explore what Montessori education looks like in practice and how it helps children build independence, confidence, curiosity, and a lifelong love of learning.

Happy International Literacy Day! 🍎📚

At Apple, literacy is one of the core areas of focus in our well-rounded and enriched Montessori curriculum, with many students in our schools excelling in reading at the age of four. Beginning in the 2024-25 school year, we enhanced our unique, phonics-based reading program with a modernized approach that aligns with the Science of Reading. Head to the Apple blog now for more details on our program and how we foster a positive, natural learning experience for both reading and writing:

The start of a new school year is almost here! As we prepare to welcome our students back to Apple Montessori Schools for the 2026-27 school year, we'd like to remind you about our upcoming All-Schools Meet & Greet on Tuesday, September 8, from 2:00–3:30 p.m. Drop in any time!

We encourage you to bring your child along! The Meet & Greet is a wonderful opportunity for children to meet their teachers, visit their classroom, and become familiar with their school environment before the first day.

Whether your child is returning to the same classroom, moving up, or joining us for the very first time, spending some time in the classroom together can help build excitement and confidence for the year ahead. Parents will also have the opportunity to connect with teachers and other families as we get ready for what awaits! 🍎

Choosing a school for your child is a big decision. You can read about programs, explore photos, compare schedules, and research educational philosophies—but sometimes, you simply need to step inside a school to know how it feels.

That's why we've made it even easier for families to take that important first step with our new and improved Schedule a Tour experience:

For young children, some of the best learning begins with a simple question: What will happen if I try this? 🤔 That natural curiosity is something we encourage every day at Apple Montessori Schools. Children learn by touching, exploring, experimenting, observing, and discovering — building an understanding of the world around them through hands-on experiences.

And that kind of learning doesn't have to stop when your child leaves the classroom.

With just a few items you probably already have at home, you can create a simple science experiment that feels like play while encouraging concentration, independence, fine motor development, and scientific thinking: https://applemontessorischools.com/blog/simple-science-big-learning-try-this-montessori-inspired-experiment-at-home 🧪🌋

And just like that...

It's time for New Parent Orientations!

We're certainly not in the business of rushing the summer along, but we're also busy preparing for the upcoming 2026-27 school year and hope you're feeling as excited as we are!

For enrolled families, please check your inbox for details! For interested families who have already completed a tour, feel free to join us for New Parent Orientation. These events are set up as an opportunity to review all the important details necessary prior to the first day, from school calendars and policies to forms and supply lists and everything in between. We hope hearing this info & getting to interact with current families may provide some clarity as you make this important decision for your family. We know it's a big one, and we want to make sure you have all the details you need.

Reminder: children do not attend this event, but are invited for upcoming Meet & Greet events set for all schools on Tuesday, Sept. 8.
