Executive function is the key to self-control and good decision-making and it is built through play. As children construct their own knowledge, engage in imaginative play in an exceptional environment, and interact socially in a positive, highly supportive place, all of the gifts of executive function can flourish. At IMagic, children are free to engage in a wide variety of activities using many different materials, props and games. Imaginative play, natural reading, writing, speaking and listening activities, math manipulatives, deductive reasoning games and positive social support are provided so students can play using multiple intelligences. In addition, students may get their homework done, attend a circuit class at The Peak or take a gymnastics class at Gym Trix during their time at IMagic to further make the mind, body, spirit connection.

Pick up from Boulder Oaks Elementary is now being offered and an additional fee applies for this service. Alpine Elementary students can ride the district bus for drop-off at IMagic.
