“Play is the beginning of knowledge.” ✨⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
-George Dorsey⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

Our peg wall offers a variety of opportunities for meaningful play. 🌈 For toddlers, grasping a peg and successfully placing it in a small hole is a big accomplishment. This practice helps improves hand eye coordination + fine motor skills. ✨ For our older learners more difficult concepts can be applied such as placing the pegs in a sequence, counting, sorting and making patterns— this helps build a foundation for math.
Cultivating curiosity is so foundational to our approach at the Modern Tot. ✨ 🐚 Natural materials provide many sensory benefits and help provide tactile stimulation. 🍂
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
The exposure to a range of natural materials helps with finger awareness and coordination and also sparks fascination with discovering in the great outdoors. 🌈✨
“Play is our brain’s favorite way of learning.” -Diane Ackerman⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
We purposely set up our spaces so our students can follow what fascinates them. ✨ It’s pure magic watching them gravitate towards something that sparks their interest. The awe of discovery never gets old ✨🌈 #staycurious
“Children learn as they play. Most importantly, in play children learn how to learn.” -O. Fred Donaldson⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
One of our highest callings at The Modern Tot is to help inspire children to become lifelong learners. ✨✨ #playismagic #staycurious
Meaningful play and the environment to discover are foundational at The Modern Tot. 🌈🌿✨
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
We believe that fresh air, garden time, and a curriculum that guides children to follow what fascinates them sets the table for little ones to become lifelong learners. ✨🌿

Learning should be magic ✨
Learning should be magic ✨
We struggled finding a place we’d trust with our 2-year-old and didn’t believe parents should have to settle for less than amazing child care or put their careers on hold.
So, together with a team of early childhood educators, we founded The Modern Tot, where each child is valued for who they are.
You’ll be proud sending them to play, explore, and learn in a peaceful environment that nurtures your child’s inner wonder.
