About
Seeds & Sprouts-Bilingual ECE Academy is a preschool in Burien, WA offering Spanish-immersion early childhood education. The school follows the Reggio Emilia approach, emphasizing student-led, experiential learning and multiple modes of expression, aligned with the “Hundred Languages of Children” philosophy.
Programs are organized by age: Exploradores (18 months–2.5 years), Investigadores (2.5–4.5 years, potty trained), and Innovadores (4.5–6 years). Developmental goals span language, social-emotional growth, problem-solving, independence, early mathematics and number recognition, and exploration through sensory play.
All classroom interactions, lessons, and activities occur in Spanish to promote natural language acquisition alongside foundational skills. Classrooms feature Spanish-language materials, and instruction incorporates songs, games, and hands-on projects. Teachers are native or fluent Spanish speakers with training in early childhood education. The curriculum also introduces basic sign language commands, integrates STEM, and supports a multicultural learning environment.
Office hours are Monday through Friday, 7:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m., with Morning Preschool from 9:00 a.m. to 1:00 p.m. and Afternoon Preschool from 2:00 p.m. to 6:00 p.m. Tours are typically scheduled as private sessions after hours or on weekends with the Director to address each family’s questions and needs.
