Registration NOW OPEN for 2026 - 2027 school year!
We’re excited to introduce IDEA Lab Kids STEAM Preschool.
A fully licensed program that combines hands-on learning with a collaborative, whole-child approach to early development.
More Than a Preschool Experience
IDEA Lab Kids STEAM Preschool has partnered with Woven Blessings Maternal and Pediatric Services and the Speech Language & Literacy Centre.
Together, we are building a more comprehensive early learning environment that blends hands-on STEAM education with deeper developmental support, helping children grow with confidence across all areas of learning. With collaboration from Occupational Therapists (OTs) and Speech Language Pathologists (SLPs), children will be supported to develop strong communication, literacy, self-regulation, and functional life skills - empowering them to participate more fully, build meaningful connections, and thrive both in and beyond the classroom. SLPs and OTs will provide training in areas critical for child development, ultimately building the capacity of early childhood education staff.
Affordability Grant Approved
As of April 2026, IDEA Lab Kids STEAM Preschool has signed the 2026/27 Alberta Affordability Grant agreement, helping make high-quality early learning more accessible for families.
Through hands-on exploration in science, technology, engineering, art, and math, children build foundational skills while actively discovering how the world works. Every class is intentionally designed to encourage problem-solving, collaboration, and critical thinking.
Our program curriculum provides a structured yet engaging environment where children are supported, challenged, and inspired. Our small group approach ensures purposeful early education that prepares children for school and beyond.
Our classes are intentionally small, with a maximum of 12 children and a 1:6 instructor ratio.
This allows us to provide meaningful guidance, build strong relationships, and ensure every child is actively engaged in their learning experience.
Every activity is designed with intention. Through hands-on STEAM experiences, children explore, test, and discover in ways that build real understanding, not just passive participation.
We believe play should have purpose, and learning should feel exciting.
We encourage children to ask questions, explore new ideas, and think independently.
Our activities are designed to allow for different approaches and outcomes, giving each child the space to solve problems and express their ideas in their own way.
By blending creativity with problem-solving, we help children build confidence in their thinking and develop a strong sense of individuality as learners.
Confidence is built through experience.
Each activity is designed to engage children in hands-on exploration, experimentation, and creation and expression.
Through a balance of independent thinking and collaborative work, children learn to express their ideas, contribute to a team, and take pride in both the process and the outcome.
Our preschool is designed to spark a lasting love of learning.
We focus on building curiosity, independence, and confidence so children are equipped to explore, question, and grow in whatever path they choose.
