A Model for Multilingualism
Our toy-free initiative and research-based bilingual programming have received attention from early education researchers and publications. KinderHaus is often cited as a model for combining academic depth with emotional intelligence, multilingualism, and nature-based learning.
We are proud to be part of a larger conversation about the future of early childhood education—locally and internationally.
