Welcome to our School

Our mission:

Our school provides various offerings for children of 2.5 - 11 years of age in Seattle’s Green Lake neighborhood.  Our programs include Morning Preschool Program and Summer Camp.  

At Little Explorers School we spend our days making discoveries through play, art, music, science, nature, and much more.  Our ability to engage children using positive reinforcement and encouragement provides the opportunity to learn and make new connections.

Little Explorers seeks to honor each child as an individual and celebrate their creative and unique learning styles. It is our mission at Little Explorers to give children the tools to become empowered and caring individuals, while fostering a love of learning.
