Maria Montessori’s years of research revealed that the first six years of a child’s quest for knowledge are characterized not by ordinary curiosity, but by an acute need to learn and to explore.
Operated by the Center for Early Childhood Education, the Rice Children’s Campus is one of Houston’s premier early learning facilities serving the children of Rice University faculty, staff and students, age birth through five.
Located on the west end of Rice University Campus, the Children’s Campus is committed to providing the best possible educational experiences for the children in its care and offers a rich curriculum grounded in the work of Maria Montessori. The Campus serves as a hub for an array of family programs and is dedicated to supporting families through cooperation and respect and the mutual goal of doing what is best for children in care.
