Blue Skies Exploration Academy is a Reggio Emilia influenced early learning center in Colorado Springs. The Reggio Emilia philosophy of learning is a modern, reflective way of teaching and interacting with young children, combining the best qualities of Play-Based, Waldorf and Montessori methods into a socially and environmentally connected learning community.
We believe in the importance of laying a foundation for a lifetime of learning by encouraging children to explore their interests more deeply through doing, asking questions, and having fun. Our programs will provide you with the comfort of knowing every child is safe, loved, and happy as they grow and learn.
We invite you to schedule a tour today! Come see our accredited programs in action, meet our caring team members, and watch as our students learn, and grow.
Like most parents, you think your child is special and so do we! Thatβs why we tailor our activities & instruction to meet the unique needs of your child.
Discover upcoming holidays and events at our centers. We invite you and your family to meet our teachers and staff and learn more about our culture and philosophy.
πβ¨ Our 3-Year-Olds Are Letting Their Imaginations Run Wild! β¨π
This week in our Signature Program, our little learners dove into the wonderful world of Where the Wild Things Are by Maurice Sendak. Inspired by the story, the children created their very own "Wild Things" using pipe cleaners, straws, and a variety of tools to add unique details to their imaginative creatures.
The creativity didn't stop there! The kiddos also had a hands-on sensory experience mixing their own salt dough, getting a little messy while exploring textures, measuring ingredients, and working together.
From storytelling and creative expression to sensory exploration and fine motor development, it was a fun-filled week of learning, creating, and letting imaginations run wild! πΎπ¨π§

We are currently enrolling infants, toddlers, and preschoolers!
At Blue Skies, we are inspired by the Reggio Emilia approach, where children learn through play, exploration, creativity, and meaningful experiences. Our days are filled with hands-on learning opportunities that encourage curiosity, independence, and a lifelong love of learning.
We are also working hard to develop strong social-emotional skills, helping children build confidence, kindness, self-regulation, and positive relationships with others.
Our goal is to provide a safe, nurturing, and supportive environment where every child feels valued, loved, and empowered to grow.
We would love the opportunity to care for your little ones and become a part of their learning journey!

Our UPK kiddos have been learning about our Artist of the Month, Michelangelo! π¨β¨
Mr. Jeffrey taught the children all about the famous Sistine Chapel and how Michelangelo spent years painting its incredible ceiling. The children were fascinated by his artwork and creativity, and today they were inspired to become artists themselves!
Using their imaginations, our little artists painted their own βceiling tile,β just like Michelangelo. Watching them explore art, history, and self-expression was such a fun and meaningful experience.
We are so proud of their creativity and enthusiasm for learning! Who knows? We may have some future artists in our classroom! ποΈπ¨π
