Monrovia Families Love Village Playgarden

Nestled just a short drive from Monrovia, Village Playgarden warmly welcomes families from this vibrant and historic foothill community. Known for its charming Old Town, community spirit, and beautiful natural surroundings, Monrovia offers an ideal backdrop for raising young children—and a perfect match for our Waldorf-inspired approach to early childhood education.

Why Monrovia Is a Wonderful Place for Families

Located along the base of the San Gabriel Mountains, Monrovia is one of the oldest incorporated cities in Los Angeles County. Its tree-lined streets, family-friendly events, and strong sense of community make it especially attractive to young families. The city is home to several beloved parks, including:

• Library Park, the heart of Old Town Monrovia, known for its expansive green space, storybook-themed playground, and family events like Friday night concerts and movies in the park.

• Recreation Park, with sports fields, shaded playgrounds, and picnic areas perfect for weekend outings.

• Canyon Park, a nature preserve offering scenic trails and opportunities to explore wildlife, creeks, and waterfalls—ideal for nature-loving families.

Monrovia also features a popular farmers market, strong public library programs for children, and seasonal street fairs that bring the whole town together.

How Village Playgarden Serves Monrovia Families

Many of our Village Playgarden families come from Monrovia, drawn by our heart-centered, nature-based curriculum and peaceful setting. Just minutes away in neighboring Arcadia, our school provides a nurturing space where young children are free to play, explore, and grow at their own pace.

Our rhythms, seasonal celebrations, and commitment to outdoor exploration align beautifully with the values of Monrovia families who appreciate holistic learning and a slower, more intentional childhood. Whether your child is exploring in our Forest Kindergarten or sharing stories in the preschool circle, Village Playgarden becomes an extension of home.

Growing Together

At Village Playgarden, we are honored to support the children of Monrovia as they begin their educational journey. We see ourselves not just as a school, but as part of a larger, interconnected community—where children, parents, and teachers grow together in harmony with nature and one another.
