About this event

KIN Bridge Overview Dates: April 6 – June 12 Time: 9:30–11:30 AM (2-hour program) Room: Star Room Schedule Options: 2–4 days per week Group & Staffing The group includes 8–10 children with three teachers. A caregiver accompanies the child initially; however, we work on gentle, developmentally appropriate separation throughout the series, always guided by each child's readiness and confidence—often beginning within the room perimeter and gradually expanding outward. Our Approach: The Stewart Method Toddler Bridge is grounded in The Stewart Method, our educational philosophy developed at Perry School over 25 years of hands-on work with children and families. The Stewart Method blends: • Reggio-inspired, child-led inquiry • Intentional structure and rhythm that support independence • Deep respect for the child as a capable learner • Carefully scaffolded social-emotional growth • Learning through movement, music, art, and sensory exploration Children are offered meaningful choices within a thoughtfully prepared environment, allowing curiosity, confidence, and connection to grow naturally. Curriculum & Daily Experience Toddler Bridge includes all core elements of our KIN pathway programming, intentionally woven together through The Stewart Method: • Music • KIN Move (gross motor development, coordination, body awareness) • KIN Studio (process-based art and sensory exploration) • KIN Think (early literacy, early math concepts, and critical thinking) • Social-emotional development • Cooperative play and early classroom routines Children have their own dedicated classroom environment, and teachers actively observe and respond to emerging interests, creating a warm, responsive learning experience that evolves with the group. By the end of Toddler Bridge, children are typically well-prepared to enter a more independent preschool setting with confidence and ease. Enrollment & Availability We are currently close to capacity, with only a few spots remaining.

KIN THINK — Pathway 1

KIN by Perry School · West Village

KIN THINK is where little minds get very busy. Designed especially for children 12–24 months, this playful, hands-on class introduces early literacy, math, problem-solving, building, and big ideas in ways that feel natural and exciting to a young toddler. Through The Stewart Method™, children begin exploring whole-word reading , seeing and recognizing meaningful words—including their own names—as language begins to come alive. In early math, we focus first on quantity before numerals , helping children understand what one, two, three and more actually mean before connecting those quantities to written numbers. Children build, stack, connect, sort, match and problem-solve using blocks, interlocking materials, puzzles and other carefully selected hands-on materials. These experiences strengthen spatial awareness, fine-motor coordination, concentration and early reasoning while giving children the freedom to experiment and discover. Our THINK curriculum also introduces a constantly growing world of knowledge—from shapes, colors and textures to animals, nature and simple science concepts. Books, music, movement and conversation are woven throughout so that learning remains joyful, social and developmentally appropriate. At this age, children are capable of absorbing an extraordinary amount. Our goal isn’t to push them ahead—it’s to meet their curiosity, keep up with them, and give them more to think about. Ages 12–24 months • Caregiver accompanied • Drop-in friendly
