A Taste of Preschool
A new twist for those young preschool-aged children and their siblings ! All children will enjoy classroom activities with their parents , but the fun really begins when parents go to their parenting discussion and the big kids ( ages three through five ) get to “ practice ” going to preschool in the classroom while the younger siblings play in the sibling care classroom . There will be learning activities in small and large groups similar to those in preschool . Discussion topics will focus on helping children learn preschool skills as well as topics that foster growth and development .
