Age Groups: 

In response to your valuable feedback, we’ve adjusted our age groups to include children 18 months – 4.5 years old!

Our program is divided into three different age groups: Honu, Manō, and Nēnē. Each group engages in activities specially designed for their skill level. As children progress, our curriculum gently readies them for the classroom setting, all while maintaining a focus on a fun, playful, and open-ended experience.

HONU CLASS (18 months – 23 months)

Your lively Honu will sing, dance, create arts & crafts, take turns playing games with peers, and explore free play! This quickly evolving hour-long class will keep your spirited keiki engaged while practicing early preschool skills. 

MANŌ CLASS (24 months – 35 months)

Your Manō will “swim” into a gentle introduction to early preschool concepts through fun and engaging activities that alternate between focused tasks and physical and interactive games. You and your curious keiki will build lasting experiences and have a blast discovering early literacy and math, circle time, STEM concepts, music, art and more!

NĒNĒ CLASS (3 years old –  4.5 years old)

The Nēnē class flies into a slightly more formal class environment to prepare students for a smooth transition to preschool. Fun and engaging play-based activities will focus on early literacy and math concepts and promote independent, confident, eager learners who are ready to soar into ‘big kid school’!

Behavior Expectations and Policy 

Tutor Doctor Hawaii upholds the fundamental principle that every individual should be treated with dignity, respect and care to allow the opportunity to play and learn in a safe, fun and caring environment. Every individual plays an important role in our classes, and we all must act in a manner that promotes care and mutual respect for each other. The safety and well-being of each child and team member are of our highest priority, and we kindly request that you please help to guide your child accordingly. In the event that a child behaves in a way that repeatedly disrupts the class experience for others or endangers other children or team members, they may be asked to be removed from the class. Tutor Doctor Hawaii reserves the right to ask children not to return to the play center if their behavior consistently and negatively affects other children and team members. In this case, tuition fees will not be refunded.
