Welcome to preschool, where we get them ready for what comes next “big kid school!”
This age is all about expression when kids start to form their ideas about what they want to play and how they want to create. Every day in our preschool classroom, your child will explore science experiments, create artwork, and play pretend—all the skills needed for their big next step: kindergarten! to our classroom and find out!
Explore the preschool classroom
This classroom is organized for their age and stage of learning and development.
Open-ended questions
As your preschooler moves through their day, they will hear lots of open-ended questions. For example. Instead of saying, “Paint your flower petals with green and red,” we may ask, “What color would you like to paint your flower?” There are small changes to make big differences in building your child’s confidence.
Preschoolers play their way
For much of the day, kids create, play, pretend, and express themselves their way. This type of independent play builds critical thinking skills, self-reliance, and confidence for life.
Inside a Preschoolers Day
Our caring teachers set a schedule for preschoolers that consists of group time, storytime, outdoor meals and snacks, naps, and lots of unstructured play.
Group Time
Group time happens every day for each of our age groups. Preschoolers come together to do group activities and group reading.
Meals and Snacks
Every day, preschoolers sit down to meals, where they eat healthy fruits, vegetables, lean proteins, and whole grains.
Outdoor Playtime
Most of our classes spend 20-30 minutes outside at least twice per day, weather permitting. They can get going at this age. It is a time to explore and play using their imaginations.
Preschool Curriculum
Our incredible teachers are here to offer the safest place and most inspiring learning environment for your preschooler. Your child will practice language, math, science, Spanish, and social skills through hands-on learning and playtime.
Building brain power and strong bodies
Preschoolers start to do science experiments and learn early math concepts. This helps them build their critical thinking skills, memory, and focus. They stay healthy by playing outdoors, hopping and dancing inside, and learning about nutritious foods!
Making friends and expressing feelings
Children in our classroom are constantly building on their new skills—and that includes the ones needed for making friends and communicating feelings. We help preschoolers talk about feelings, show them how to resolve conflicts, and support them as they make friends.
Reading books and learning to write
We get preschoolers ready for kindergarten by reading lots of books, identifying rhyming words, and writing. Singing songs and playing games help them notice similar-sounding words.
Creating art and playing pretend
They will build lots of self-confidence by expressing themselves creatively through painting, drama, music, storytelling, and writing. We give them the tools they need to create and then watch them explore. And teachers are always nearby with words of encouragement!
Preschool classroom activities
Every day, our creative teachers guide preschoolers through fun activities that are just right for their age. Here are just a few examples!
La Casa y la Familia
Kids are introduced to Spanish words about home and family through songs, read-aloud, active games, and activities.
Obstacle Courses
Kids move through an outdoor obstacle course, learning to solve problems independently.
Writing of Group Stories
Kids create stories together using pieces of felt and felt board.
