Minis

Introducing the "Minis" 2-Day Program at Southwest Christian Academy

 

At Southwest Christian Academy, we understand that the early years of a child’s life are crucial for developing a love of learning. Our*Minis program offers a nurturing, play-based learning environment for our youngest learners, designed to cultivate creativity, curiosity, and foundational skills that will carry them through their educational journey. Our 2-day program, for children ages 3-4, is a perfect start for those looking to engage in early childhood education rooted in Christian values.

 

Play-Based Learning: Where Fun Meets Education

 

Our Minis program uses play-based learning as the cornerstone of development. At this age, children are natural explorers, and our curriculum focuses on providing a rich environment where they can learn through hands-on activities. By engaging in imaginative play, sensory activities, arts and crafts, and games, children develop key cognitive, motor, social, and emotional skills. 

 

We believe that play is essential for young learners to make sense of the world around them and to build the foundational skills needed for future academic success. Our experienced educators facilitate this learning by providing a variety of materials and activities that encourage children to explore, ask questions, problem-solve, and work together with their peers.

 

Nurturing Christian Values

 

At Southwest Christian Academy, faith is an integral part of every aspect of our students’ lives, even at the youngest ages. In the Minis program, children are introduced to foundational Christian values through Bible stories, prayer, and songs. We help children understand the concepts of kindness, love, respect, and gratitude, which are core to our Christian teachings.

 

Through gentle guidance and example, our teachers instill in each child the importance of treating others with compassion, understanding, and care. This spiritual foundation nurtures a sense of belonging to a loving community, both within the classroom and beyond.

 

Key Features of Our Minis Program:

 

- 2-Day Schedule: Designed to fit the needs of busy families, our 2-day program offers a balanced approach to early childhood education. Children attend classes twice a week, allowing them to engage in both structured and unstructured play while still having time to rest and spend with their families.

  

- Hands-On, Interactive Activities: Our play-based curriculum includes opportunities for children to engage in arts and crafts, music, movement, storytelling, and sensory activities. These activities not only support cognitive and emotional development but also allow children to explore their creativity.

 

- Christian Faith Integration: Children are introduced to Bible stories, prayer, and Christian songs, encouraging spiritual growth at an early age. We emphasize love for others, kindness, and gratitude as key elements of Christian living.

 

- Small Class Sizes: We believe that each child deserves individualized attention. Our small class sizes ensure that children have the support they need to feel comfortable, secure, and ready to explore their world.

 

- Socialization and Community: In addition to individual learning, the Minis program emphasizes social skills through cooperative play and group activities. Children learn to share, collaborate, and communicate with others, helping them develop healthy, positive relationships with peers.

 

- Family-Centered Approach: We work closely with families to support each child’s growth and development. Through regular communication, parent-teacher meetings, and school events, we ensure that parents are active participants in their child’s educational journey.
