three year old preschool class in chester county pa

The Threes class learns through physical play and a variety of hands on activities. Each day is a different theme that includes language development, simple math concepts, arts and crafts, stories, music, and interactive games that provide the child the opportunity for having fun and meeting new friends in a nurturing environment. The children are taught Nursery Rhymes each month that aid in developing phonemic awareness, a crucial first step in learning to read. The children learn about God’s wonderful love for them through Bible stories and verses.
