Adventure Montessori Learning preschool began as a dream in the heart of Evajean Boyd. She discovered the value of Montessori Education during a difficult time in the life of her son. The Montessori education and philosophy was so instrumental in the education of her son that she purposed in her heart to someday provide the Montessori preschool and elementary education for all children. During this time she noted that Montessori education was not available for children of varied social and economic backgrounds. Her goal was to provide a Montessori education that was affordable and accessible to children of all races and economic backgrounds. Today, the school is providing a secure environment that creates a love of learning for children from 15 mo's to 6 years old in the Thornton and Denver area. Adventure Montessori Preschool is proud to provide an early childcare setting where preschoolers are valued and respected. We know we provide more than a traditional daycare. Our Montessori program is based on self-direction, non-competitive and cooperative activities that help a child develop a strong self-image, high levels of academic and social competence, and the confidence to face challenges with optimism. Children are encouraged to make decisions from an early age. Montessori preschool educated children are problem solvers who can make appropriate choices, manage their time, and work well with others. These positive communication skills build the foundations for a love of learning for a lifetime,
