Soular Child is a refined child-focused Montessori - Froebel Development Centre in Calgary.

Soular Child Development Centre is a refined child-focused “preschool” / “day care” institution in Calgary. With small class sizes and limited space per program we pride ourselves on offering individual and specialized attention to our children. Soular Child offers a fully integrated childcare curriculum that borrows from different systems, including both Montessori and Froebel Methods.

Maria Montessori and Frederick Fröbel are two of the most influential pioneers in education, whose instructive methods influenced the standard of early childhood Curriculum, as they are today, both theoretically and practically.

Froebel's philosophy of education rests on four basic ideas: free self-expression, creativity, social participation, and motor expression.

Montessori’s three guiding principles are: creating, nurturing, and educating.

Together they form a program that allows for these basic principles and centres on the fundamental principles of Discipline, Concentration, and Motivation.

Specific apparatus’ designed by both the Italian and German theorists are still considered highly valued educational tools used in today’s early childhood setting, and are used daily in our facility. Their vision of suitable furniture for centres catering to young persons is followed as well. Both Froebel and Montessori influenced schooling all around the world and made a significant impact on modern day mainstream education, and continue to make one on the children and parents of the Soular Child Montessori Development Centre.
