We Are Dahlia Montessori.

Dahlia is a Montessori micro-learning center for children in the early stages of their lives ranging from 2½ to 6 years old. Located in Allenhust, New Jersey, Dahlia invites all families to feel at home, to be comfortable, included, and free to express themselves. We work hard every day to make sure every individual child is inspired to become an active member of this collective endeavor, resulting in stronger, holistic families. We love seeing how this feeling of togetherness can radiate around the community.

Movement

The children are expected and encouraged to move freely throughout the room, participate in dance, and yoga, aiding their developmental need for movement.
