Peak City Book Festival Spotlight: The Learning Experience of Apex

The Peak City Book Festival is fully funded by authors, businesses and organizations.  And, every week brings new sponsors which are posted to Facebook, Pinterest and the web-site.  Today, we are spotlighting The Learning Experience of Apex for their generous sponsorship of the Story Time room, dedicated to children's books and story sessions from NC authors.  See our website for the Story Time events!

The Learning Experience of Apex






The Learning Experience enhances the lives of children ages 6 weeks to 6 years. In each contemporary, colorful building children learn in a fun fashion starting with sign language for infants through preschool, technology, early literacy, math, sciences, music, theater, creative arts, dance, physical fitness, nutrition, etiquette and much more. Graduates of TLE are more than prepared to enter Kindergarten and first grade. All the curriculum is proprietary and has been designed, written and published especially for TLE children.

At The Learning Experience early learning is an art. We believe that knowledge is like the sky, never ending. Parents dream of the best for their children and at TLE their dreams become reality making those important first years creative, productive, happy and most importantly filled with lots of love.
