Preschool Programming (3-Year Olds)
"I go to sleep thinking about my children being spoiled and I wake up thinking about it."
~ Adam Sandler
Our commitment to quality care enhances our Preschool Program through our hands-on, theme based curriculum, which allows children to make good choices and be successful. At each stage of preschool development careful consideration is given to classroom arrangement and selection of developmentally appropriate toys and equipment to enhance the development of the children. The preschool classroom revolves around 8 interest areas: creative arts, blocks, dramatic play, book corner, manipulatives, math, science and sensory. Insterest areas are enriched with engaging activities corresponding with the theme. Children interact with a variety of materials to discover and learn. It is through this child-directed play and fun that preschoolers are actually learning concepts such as counting, letter recognition, sounds, shapes, colors sequencing and listening skills in prepartion for kindergarten.
Arts for Kids has a written program of activities planned according to the developmental level of each group of children and intended to expose children to a variety of cultures. The program will give each child experiences that will encourage the following:
Self esteem and positive self-images
Social interacation
Self-expression and communication skills
Creative expression
Large and small muscle development
Intelluctual growth

Hello Families!
The kids and I had so much fun in June with our themes: Dairy, Ocean Animals, Father's Day, Summer, and Fourth of July. We did so many fun activities like making butter, bubble art, keychains for Dad, making lemonade, and watching our underwater fireworks! Now it's time for our new themes in the month of July. We are going to be learning about camping, space and aliens, transportation, and lastly, yummy fruits and vegetables.
A couple of reminders:
Please bring home sleeping bags and water bottles on Friday to be washed and returned.
Please make sure your child has a water bottle, the sun is so hot and it's always so nice to take a water break to cool off.
If you have any questions, comments, or concerns, please feel free to reach out to me through the app or in person!

Please remember that it is hot out and to bring a water bottle on Monday and take them home to be washed on Friday! Also please make sure your child has weather appropriate clothing in their cubby in case something happens.

Hello families!
Can you believe it’s already July? June flew by us way too fast!
We started off the month, focusing on Dairy! We had many fun hands on activities such as making butter and making vanilla ice cream! The kiddos absolutely loved this week! The following week’s theme was Ocean Animals! We made Bubble Wrapped Stamped Starfishes and 3D Paper Turtles and so many more ocean creatures! The next theme for the month of June was Father’s Day. We celebrated Father’s Day by inviting the important men in our lives into our classroom to enjoy donuts and beverages one morning. After celebrating Father’s Day, we spent the next week focused on Summer! We investigated all the fun things we could do during the summer! And as a class, we made lemonade and homemade popsicle! Another fun activity we did was tye dyeing! The entire class has matching tye dyed t-shirts! We wrapped up the month celebrating the 4th of July (Independence Day). We did a Red, White and Blue Paper Ice Cream Craft, Rolling Marble Star Craft, and for a special treat we ended up making some delicious Star Spangled Sponge Cake with berries and whipped cream! We sure loved it!
For the month of July, the themes will consist of: Camping, Space & Aliens, Transportation, and Fruits & Vegetables! We have many hands-on activities and fun crafts planned for this month as well as some delicious treats! We can’t wait to share it all with you!
