Our Ridgewood studio is our fifth studio, and first in New Jersey. Since 2023, we’ve been welcomed with open arms by our wonderful neighbors and local residents.
Our calm and cozy studio is a breath of fresh air for families of little ones who are being introduced to academia and building their socio-emotional skills, and for families of older children who want to encourage a love and wonder of literacy learning. We also love to connect with our local community, and offer many opportunities for collaboration.
Our Ridgewood studio offers our community:
- Year-Round Enrichment Classes for ages 6 months to 10 years old
- Seasonal Storytime Events
- Private Storytime Events
- Babies & Bubbles–Our signature gathering for new parents and their little ones
- Birthday Parties
Please note - Schedule is updated at the start of each month. We offer rolling enrollment unless the class is full. Please contact us to see if we can accommodate any scheduling conflicts.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is Wise Wonder Enrichment?
Wise Wonder is a unique literacy program for children ages 6 months - 10 years of age. We teach children the literacy skills they need to feel confident to read and understand every book they pick off the shelf. Since 2012, we’ve served thousands of children to do just that; so that they can feel confident in the classroom and be inspired to keep learning!
What is a Discovery Series?
The Discovery Series is a three-class introduction to Wise Wonder that allows children to experience our program while building core early literacy skills. Across the series, students work on phonics foundations, early reading and writing skills, language development, and confidence in a small-group setting
How many children will be in my child's enrichment class?
Wise Wonder classes have always been small group, to ensure our students are receiving individualized attention from the teacher. Our student to teacher ratio is 6:1. The maximum number of students in our tiered learning classes is six students. Our Big Hoots will be a ratio of 3:1.
How do we find the right class for your child | Our age criteria defined:
The Wise Wonder Curriculum was created with children’s key developmental milestones in mind. Each tier is built based on a child’s age in months at the start of the school year, and to progress to the next tier, they must build the foundations from the previous tier.
A full-year enrollment is key for the curriculum to be most effective, but as some families join us mid-year, we offer the tier based on the start of the school year, so that they will be with peers in a similar age bracket (typically grouped within 6 months) so that they are all developmentally working on the same milestones. During the spring semester, we begin to introduce materials from the next tier, and we want to make sure that your child can build their confidence, and become familiar with the materials at a comfortable pace, without feeling overwhelmed.
