Spanish woven into songs, stories, and daily routines — language learning that feels like play.
How it works
Spanish first, English always close by
Spanish immersion begins in our toddler program at 18 months. Teachers lead activities and routines in Spanish, then follow with English support, so children hear both languages naturally throughout the day.
- Teachers lead songs, stories, and routines in Spanish, with English support
- Spanish songs and movement — music, rhythm, and play
- Spanish and English woven into activities, books, and everyday routines
- Available at both Mid-City and Playa Vista

Spanish at every step

Toddlers (18 months–3 years)
Spanish immersion begins. Hands-on play, Spanish and English, and everyday routines help toddlers find their words and build independence.
Preschool (ages 3–6)
Children follow their questions through art, projects, and shared play, with Spanish-led activities and English support.
