I won't guarantee that you will be a very proficient Japanese speaker, but you will have learned a few things about the customs and culture of Japan. This Japanese school is only for 2-3 hours on Saturday mornings, so it doesn't compare even to a minor degree, to San-Iku Gakuin in San Jose or Hoshuko in San Francisco. Most of the students here are Japanese American, many, if not most, have parents who don't speak Japanese. Buuuut, if your child is between kindergarten through high school, and has an interest in learning the language, I think this is a great place to start.

I also joined as a room parent to help out, at the same time, I learned Chinese. Surprisingly, there are a lot of kids whose parents don't speak Chinese. Maybe these parents should join the CSL classes while waiting for their kids. Check out the CAMPUS NEWS section at the website www.npms.org . It has tons of great pictures. BTW the cost of one year tuition is about the cost of one week summer camp. Can't imagine anything better. The only thing is that it does not have summer camps. That would be so awesome.

From my very first visit, I was so impressed by how well-behaved and engaged all the kids were, and how warmly the teachers interacted with them. The staff is incredibly welcoming and nurturing. When our little one first started, he was struggling with hitting. We met with Teacher Terry to share our concerns, and she was so understanding and proactive in helping us work through it together. Now, one year old will soon be following in his siblings' footsteps--and we couldn't be more excited!

We have been very happy with our experience so far and I highly recommend them to anyone who is searching for a preschool. Their academics and social learning opportunities are well-balanced and the teachers are just kind, caring, and amazing. My children have had the same teachers in a span of 5 years, so the staff turnover is low. I find that the school closures (holidays, breaks, teacher work day, etc.) aren't as excessive as other schools, which I appreciate as a working parent. Thank you for everything, Universe of Colors staff!

We also attended their holiday parent's night out. It's located in an office building near the freeway and the program keep the children very safe. The teachers were fantastic and the activities are well planned. Their program tailored to different age groups and had a different theme each day. The children enjoyed variety of activities: science experiment, language art, Chinese calligraphy, food making, and many more. I took the advantage of the partnership WhizKids had with local restaurants and ordered lunch for the children. They even provided fruit/veggie infused water for the children. We are definitely going back for summer camp this year.

The teachers were warm, steady, and really attentive, and that made a huge difference for us. Fast forward and now he's graduating for Kindergarten, which is honestly emotional. We'll miss Magic a lot. Magic helped our child become a real little reader. He started bringing home "level books," and now he grabs books on his own and asks for the same favorites over and over, especially Pete the Cat Goes Camping and Little Bear. It's become one of his favorite things to do. In the preschool program he loved the routine and the fun stuff, especially Thursday dance class and the monthly field trips. Around age two we hit separation anxiety and the "terrible twos," and the staff handled it so patiently and professionally. They helped him settle, regulate, and feel safe. We also really value that Magic offers English, Chinese, and Spanish. It's been a big plus for our child and for private school applications. We're truly grateful and would absolutely recommend Magic Education.

All the teachers are very nice. They not only teach the children with all different things (Chinese, English, Spanish, handcrafts, drawing, story telling, etc), but also take very good care of all the children. Teachers always update to parents with how the children did during the day when they are picked up. They know every kid very well. Facility is also very good. Bright classrooms, big yards with different toys. They keep everything clean. Hot lunches and snacks are also very good and healthy. A LOT of pictures and videos every day through APP. We really appreciate this, and it makes us feel very connected. We know what exactly happened in the daycare almost every hour through out the day. Ms. Coco also gives child growth report to every family with well organized one on one meetings twice a year. Very detail engaged. We feel very reassured to take our son to Magic Education, and definitely recommend

What has always stood out most to us is how deeply they care for the children. They treat them with so much warmth and attention that it truly feels like family. We also really appreciated the summer camp offerings when school was out. Having a trusted place with creative themed activities made such a difference for our family.
