Our Approach
At Huckleberry our focus is on the kids. Using a combination of Waldorf, Piaget and Montessori teaching principles, as well as the latest science in the development of learning in children, we strive to create a rich curriculum combining art and science.
Our Facility
We are conveniently located in the University District just off 45th Avenue NE near the I-5 freeway – quickly accessible from South Lake Union, Wallingford, Freemont, Ravenna, Maple Leaf and most of Seattle. We utilize a European model, where all children keep a set of indoor shoes at school to keep the space clean and sanitary.
Our Programs
We pride our selves on providing an inclusive program filled with developmentally appropriate activities and experiences. We use an emergent play based curriculum meant to follow the child's interests while encouraging a love learning. Our programs currently serve children between the ages 2.5- 5.
Kindergarten Readiness
For children moving onto Kindergarten we have a KinderKids program for 4-5 year olds that focuses on Kindergarten readiness topics like math, reading, and writing as well as communinity engagement through field trips and projects.
art
Art is an essential part of our program. We have both teacher lead projects and free art times to allow children to explore their world and emotions through art. It provides a wonderful context for daily life to the students.

"The goal of education is not to increase the amount of knowledge but to create the possibilities for a child to invent and discover, to create people who are capable of doing new things."
