Remember the last time you looked at something in wonderment? It was something so unique and interesting that it stopped you in your tracks. We aim to create those moments of wonderment each day in our school activities and curriculum. It is wonderment that makes a child associate learning with fun and leads to a successful approach to school as they grow up.
Youll find an amazing group of teachers and caregivers at our preschools in Arizona, Nevada and Washington. Each day they focus on providing loving care and exciting learning activities for your little one. Youll be able to set a schedule (full time or part time) that works with your familys busy life.
Were not only educators but were parents too. We know first-hand how much you want to stay connected with your child and what they are learning. Together, we chart a course for your child with an on-going dialogue to share ideas and progress. In short, youll be constantly informed about the development and progress of your child.
Keeping children safe during their day at Mini-Skool is of utmost importance. Our teachers establish guidelines in the classroom to involve children in a world of exploration, and for keeping them safe during that exploration.
We believe that it is a schools responsibility to extend a childs sense of wonder outside the classroom. Whether it is through SMART Boards connecting classrooms across the country or our philanthropy projects that teach the joy of serving others, Mini-Skool is committed to the idea that community is a vital part of our lives.

Simply put, children learn best by doing by exploring, playing and being hands-on learners. From creative art projects to a focus on phonics and math that makes learning to read and working with numbers fun, the preschool curriculum and activities at Mini-Skool is built for your enthusiastic learner.
Mini-Skool recognizes the importance of building self-esteem at a very young age. We encourage a positive sense of self by using praise, encouraging independence and building on their skills. Manners are also encouraged in the classroom throughout the day.
Studying other countries and cultures is a part of our monthly preschool curriculum and activities. Pictures, posters and books are displayed throughout the classrooms. Circle time discussions are enhanced with hands-on art, games and cooking activities. Children participate in Spanish language classes.
Other components of our curriculum include:
- Baby Signs Babies communicating long before they can talk!
- Early Reading Program Our phonics lessons help many children read before they get to Kindergarten
- Handwriting Our lessons will have your child writing their name and more. You child will feel at ease as they transition into Kindergarten writing lessons.
- Hands-on Math and in select schools Math Their Way Basic preschool math lessons come to life in our classrooms and activities
- Spanish Current research shows that children 2 -12 years of age master a second language with an ease not seen in any other age groups. Our preschool Spanish classes lay the foundation during this distinct window of opportunity for the acquisition of another language.
