Picture this: your toddler's in the garden. They're poking at leaves, chasing a ladybug, asking a hundred questions before breakfast. That's not chaos — it's learning in motion.
At Excelled Montessori Plus in San Antonio, that natural curiosity becomes the heartbeat of the classroom. Here, kids don't just sit and listen — they experiment, explore, and discover their own answers.
And honestly? The science backs it up. Research shows that kids remember about 75 percent of what they learn by doing, compared to only about 5 percent from just listening. Hands-on learning literally fires up both sides of the brain, helping information stick longer and hit deeper.
Now, this is especially powerful during early childhood, when about 90 percent of brain development happens before age five. Those first few years matter so much. That's why ExcellED focuses on giving children the right tools, freedom, and environment to explore, think critically, and grow with confidence.
Here's how it works: Teachers act more like guides than lecturers. They help students explore topics that interest them, letting them test ideas, run experiments, and problem-solve together. It's learning that's active, collaborative, and built for curiosity.
As founder Sarit Kapur puts it: “Children absorb knowledge from the moment they enter the world. We focus on giving young learners the right tools during this critical window.”
And you can see the results at home. Parents notice kids who are more independent, confident, and excited to try new things — whether that's helping clean up, figuring out puzzles, or proudly saying, “I can do it myself.”
ExcellED Montessori Plus offers programs for every stage, from infants as young as 10 weeks, all the way up to school-age children. Their curriculum includes Spanish, music, and yoga at no extra cost, plus Spanish immersion and summer enrichment programs.
