What a wonderful beginning to your child’s preschool experience! Your young 3 year old is developing quickly and the thematic based curriculum gives your energetic and curious child the opportunity to explore this wonderful world God has created for them. Each day includes language development, simple math concepts, art, music, and stories. Self-help skills are taught as the children learn how to become more independent in cleaning-up and as we partner with you in potty training. Sign-language complements the curriculum. The children share in a bible circle time at the end of each session. During this special time the children learn bible stories that teach them about God who loves them very much!
