Our Programs

At Early Discoveries Early Education Center, our classrooms are designed to grow with your child. Each program builds on the last, supporting children socially, emotionally, and academically through play-based, hands-on learning.

While skills like communication, early literacy, numbers, shapes, and social development begin early and continue through all classrooms, the depth and independence children gain increases each year.

🌱 Frontiers - (24 months )

This is where independence begins. Our youngest learners build confidence as they explore their environment with caring teacher guidance.

Children in Frontiers are developing:

Communication and vocabulary growth
Early recognition of letters, numbers, colors, and shapes
Social skills like sharing, turn-taking, and expressing emotions
Fine motor skills through art, manipulatives, and sensory play
Gross motor development through movement and outdoor play

Learning at this age happens through play, exploration, and nurturing relationships that help children feel safe and secure.

🚀 Voyagers - (3 Year Olds)

Voyagers are curious, social, and eager to learn. This classroom expands on early skills while encouraging more independence and cooperative learning.

Children in Voyagers continue developing:

Stronger communication and storytelling skills
Letter recognition, name recognition, and early writing attempts
Counting, sorting, patterns, and number awareness
Shape recognition and problem-solving
Social-emotional skills like teamwork, listening, and self-regulation

Teachers guide children through hands-on learning centers, group activities, music, movement, and creative play that prepare them for the next stage.
