Our L.E.A.P.® (Learning Experience Academic Program) Curriculum uses fun, hands-on activities throughout early education to help children develop intellectually, socially and cognitively. Or as we say, to learn, play and grow.
Children love learning from characters—and studies show that it’s highly effective especially in preschool and early education. TLE® has a cast of unique, beloved characters, each one teaching children a new value or activity.
Our lovable friend who takes you on a daily adventure that makes kids happy to learn, play and grow.

Our daughter transitioned to TLE in no time and we couldn't be happier - from day 3 she stopped looking back for us at dropoff and instead would run into her teacher's arms with a smile on her face. The teachers have been super open and transparent as has the TLE leadership - which really helps... Read more
