At Edina Morningside Nursery School
we have
taken the best of our 60-year tradition of play-based learning fostering
socialization, self-esteem, and independence and enhanced it with fun and
creative kindergarten readiness activities! We teach using a theme
 approach,
coordinating our music, art and small group activities into cohesive units.
Children enjoy show and tell, story time, and play group games while developing
social and academic skills. Class sessions include free-play, music, drama and
movement, rhythm and band, singing, storytelling, art and science activities.
Edina Morningside Nursery School seeks to foster the
intellectual, emotional, social and physical growth of each child Our mission is
to accept, love and understand each child as an individual and to create a happy
atmosphere in which each child can grow and become creatively engaged and aware
of their world.
In keeping with the Edina Morningside Church tradition of inclusion,
it is
our desire to have staff and children with a variety of beliefs and backgrounds
attending the preschool to enrich one
another's lives. Save for a simple daily blessing and recognition of the
diversity of celebrations going on during the holiday season, religious teaching
is not a part of the curriculum at Edina Morningside Nursery school. All are
welcome.
