Discover the warmth of Little Skittles, a family-owned, neighborhood kindergarten in Mountbatten.Little Skittles hosts a vibrant international community of children, their families and educators.
Nestled in a single-storey, detached black and white property hosting an expansive front lawn and outdoor play areas, Little Skittles embraces a pedagogy of play. Our teachers support playful learning and see situations and activities as opportunities to lead, explore and play. Through purposeful play, children learn to collaborate, negotiate rules and relationships and imagine and create!
PLAYFUL LEARNING – A PEDAGOGY OF PLAY

At Little Skittles, we want children to explore the unknown and find joy in learning. We believe that playful learning help children learn fundamental concepts and skills, as well as develop their ability to collaborate, solve problems and navigate uncertainty.
The idea that play, enjoyment and emotion is at odds with learning and rigor is a misconception. Creating powerful learning experiences for our children mean breaking down this distinction. By embracing play as a powerful tool, Little Skittles match a child’s natural way of learning together with the teaching of important skills and mindsets.

HOME – SCHOOL PARTNERSHIP

A strong home-school partnership ensures that learning extends beyond the classroom, creating a seamless connection between school and home. Open, two-way communication is essential because parents know their children best, providing valuable insights that help us tailor learning experiences. At the same time, schools can support families by reinforcing learning through play, offering guidance and creating a shared culture and commitment to lifelong curiosity and joy.
By engaging playfully with parents and offering ample opportunities for them to lead parent-in-class sessions, participate in school-wide celebrations, and share their passions, we create a movement for joyful parenting and learning!
We chose Little Skittles for our daughter for its small, cozy environment and loving teachers.

We are delighted with the learning-through-play approach adopted by the school and appreciate the care teachers put into nurturing her daily.
Aarav’s experience at Little Skittles has been exceptional. We chose Little Skittles for its nurturing environment, dedicated teachers, and focus on holistic development.

Our 3-year-old son Noah thrives at this school, and we are thrilled to see his excitement grow daily from day one. The enriching environment, engaging activities, and celebrations throughout the year, along with dedicated teachers and staff, make all the difference. We deeply appreciate the school’s efforts and initiatives that foster such a positive and nurturing atmosphere for the children.
Both our children were born in Singapore, and each attended Little Skittles from 18 months old. When searching for preschools in Singapore during COVID, Little Skittles stood out for its ability to make school feel like a safe and happy place during what was a very odd time. During the school tour, we learned that children of the Director and many of the teachers were also attending the school. This reassured us that they were committed to providing a truly nurturing environment.
Sasha and Freddie
We were keen to find a school for Sasha and Freddie that had plenty of outdoor space, a caring teacher support system and an engaging curriculum. Little Skittles ticked all the boxes and more and we couldn’t be more thrilled as our kids love it there and are growing into beautiful humans.
