Preschool
By MN rule 9503, "Preschooler" means a child who is at least 33 months old but who has not yet attended the first day of kindergarten."
Experience is the best teacher. We strive to provide an environment conducive to learning through experience, that allows children to express themselves, as they get ready for "big kid school!" Developmentally appropriate practices are followed. Additionally, we love to challenge the children, creating an opportunity for growth.
Examples of the fun we provide happen through: arts and crafts, science, music, fine motor activities, large motor activities and sensory play. We have dramatic play areas and utilize the outdoors when we can. Nature is a wonderful co-teacher.
KINDERGARTEN Readiness Prep
We use the "Early Childhood Indicators of Progress" and curriculum assessment tools, to ensure children are learning and progressing at an anticipated rate.
Each child is unique and we understand each child learns at their own pace. We support them where they are, in all areas of development. Additional support services will be discussed, if needed.
Per MN Statute, we maintain a ratio of 1 adult to 10 preschoolers.
"Train up a child in the way he should go: and when he is old, he will not depart from it." Proverbs 22:6
