Summer Childcare & Daycare in Houston, TX
When school is out for summer, keeping kids entertained is a difficult task for working parents. At Kids Garden, we offer summer childcare & daycare in Houston, TX to help keep kids busy and parents stress-free.
With our Montessori approach, we blend fun, creativity, and education to make an environment where your child can thrive. Our programs are designed to be meaningful to children, offering learning experiences, outdoor exploration, and the flexibility that families need.
Why Summer Education is ImportantKids Garden
When kids are at home during summer break, they miss out on time that could be spent learning, socializing, and playing. Summer is not only about keeping children occupied, it’s a chance to support their overall well-being and encourage educational growth.
Children need engagement during summer to prevent what’s known as the “summer slide,” the loss of academic skills due to the break between spring and fall classes. At Kids Garden we nurture creativity and curiosity with hands-on learning. We also allow children to build friendships and gain confidence while interacting with peers.
Our summer programs foster independence as children engage in play and problem-solving. By participating in both imaginative and physical activities, children avoid couch potato habits and stay active. A structured summer program offers the dual benefit of keeping children’s skills sharp while giving parents the time to work.

Play-based learning
Our play-based learning model includes art projects, sensory activities, and outdoor time. The children are encouraged to explore their surroundings in a low-pressure environment, which allows them to interact with materials in ways that spark curiosity.

We cultivate a deep appreciation for nature through outdoor exploration and use eco-friendly materials. We teach children the importance of caring for the environment while boosting their sense of wonder and curiosity about the natural world.
Flexibility
Our summer program is designed to accommodate busy families. Whether you’re looking for consistent full-day care or drop-in options, we have you covered.
Following the child
This approach motivates children to explore topics that spark their interest while teachers gently guide them through lessons. Following the child’s natural interests creates an environment where they are confident in their abilities.
