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.

When we first toured, we were so impressed and felt like the teachers really had a interest in the children they were caring for and were playing/interacting/teaching the children, not just sitting back letting the kids run wild. Now,... Read more
