Welcome to Playful Kids Learning Center, Inc. Each day, we provide a nurturing learning experience to the children at our Madison, WI location.  We look forward to building a relationship with you and your child as your child’s educational provider.
 
Playful Kids Learning Center, Inc. (PKLC) is a full-time educational facility.  We split up our center into three groups; our Nursery School, our Preschool and our Pre-Kindergarten.  As our name implies, the goals are much more than merely babysitting children until their parents can pick them up. The purpose of Playful Kids is to provide quality care and education in a safe, nurturing and caring environment, where children can learn, develop and grow as individuals. We believe that our children need to be challenged intellectually as well as creatively.  We would like to provide your child with the best building blocks imaginable for their journey ahead of them.   At Playful Kids, we believe strongly in allowing children to be children. We accept and respect each child as an individual with individual needs.

We are family owned and operated by Darlene Meiners- Osborn.  There is no appointment needed! Just stop in when convenient for you and your family.  If you would like to schedule a tour or receive more information, please call (608) 233-8855.

We are extremely excited that the majority of our children start in our Nursery School and continue with us throughout Pre-Kindergarten.  When our students graduate they have developed the following characteristics:  

1.        Confidence

2.       Independence

3.       Motivation

4.       Curiosity

5.       Persistence

6.       Cooperation

7.       Self Control
