Small World in Lafayette and Alameda provides Mandarin immersion, music and international awareness programs to East Bay children and their parents.

Our Mission Is To:
Prepare future citizens of this increasingly interconnected world by weaving different cultures, foods, languages, colors and traditions into the fabric of their lives.

Enable families to acquaint their young children with the Chinese culture and the fastest growing language in the world today – Mandarin – while they also enjoy traditional pre-school and elementary school experiences.

Provide the enriching experience of helping children in other parts of the world.

We Believe:

  • There are no limits on what young children can learn and embrace
  • In immersion rather than memorization
  • Children learn best in environments that are happy, interactive, loving, energetic and understanding
  • In celebrating differences
  • Learning a foreign language stimulates a child’s intellectual growth and that the optimal age to begin is 1–5
