3 Creative Play Spaces

Wonder Way Academy is divided into three creative play spaces: The Wonder Worms (6 months-18 months), The Wobbling Wonders (18 months-2 years old), and The Wiggling Wonders (3-5 years old). Each class includes activities and toys that are suitable for promoting development in areas such as language, literacy, math, science, fine motor skills, and social and emotional development. 

Routine Cleaned and Sanitized 

While achieving a completely sterile environment is unattainable, Wonder Way Academy integrates regular cleaning into our daily schedule. Recognizing that young children typically fall ill 5-10 times annually; we clean and sanitize multiple times each day. We trust parents to act responsibly by not bringing their child in when they are unwell. Given the varying degrees of vulnerability among individuals, it is crucial to ensure that we do not pose harm to others. Please refer to our handbook for additional information.

The toys at Wonder Way Academy will include open-ended unique toys that are not commonly found in a home environment. Children will have the opportunity to explore various types of creativity. The toys will support activities ranging from critical thinking to pretend play.
