​A Waldorf-inspired Kindergarten program focuses on developing healthy, integrated physical, social and emotional capacities. We cultivate imagination, foster a mood of reverence and respect and honor the rhythms of the day and seasons of the year. Our Kindergarten gently stimulates the development of curiosity, verbal capacities, sequencing, sensory integration, memory, social skills and motor skills that are essential for later learning and are the foundations for academic excellence.
​Cedar Springs Learning Center's Kindergarten welcomes children and their families to an experience which kindles imagination and inspiration.

Our rhythmic days are filled with opportunities for creative free play, nourishing storytelling and puppetry, focused will activity and healthy social and emotional growth.

​Beautiful, warm environments and attentive caregivers create safe spaces for curiosity, well-being and self development.
