Our Pedagogy
At Creative Little Explorers, we believe childhood should be filled with play, joy, and discovery. That’s why we follow a play-based learning approach inspired by the world-renowned Finnish education model — where children thrive because they feel safe, valued, and free to explore.
The Finnish model is globally admired for producing happy, confident, and creative learners, and we are proud to bring these principles to our kindergarten in Windhoek. Here, learning is not about pressure or rote academics, but about nurturing curiosity, imagination, and social-emotional growth.
Parents choose us because we are more than just a school — we are a safe and nurturing kindergarten in Windhoek with small classes, creative activities, and lots of outdoor play. From arts and crafts to music, dance, and storytelling, every day is designed to help children flourish at their own pace.
Give your child the best start in life with a top-rated kindergarten in Windhoek that combines international best practices with the warmth and creativity of our local community.
Why the Finnish Way?
The Finnish education system supports children’s learning and development without the toxic stress that can come from pushing children to learn too much, too early.
Finnish early childhood education focuses on the value of childhood and the positive development and wellbeing of children and families.
Finnish early education helps children build their self-confidence as learners through positive emotional experiences.
In Finnish education, children's opinions, ideas and viewpoints are taken into account in their educational experience.
Research shows that introducing new skills when children are ready to receive them leads to learning, not frustration.
