Pooh's Corner
Preschool: 3 – 4 years old
Your preschooler is more than just curious about the world around them. They have now formed the thought process of thinking symbolically. They can mentally represent objects, actions, and events. They are using their imaginations, and you can see this through their make-believe play. Our teachers encourage this learning process by offering hands-on activities while following a curriculum with a balance of child-initiated and teacher- facilitated lessons. You will be amazed as you watch your child’s mind expand along with their growing thirst for learning.
Our preschool classroom is designed to fit the needs of each individual child. The preschool children are learning literacy, math, science, dramatic play, music, art, and so much more! Funtastic provides opportunities to balance both shared and independent learning experiences for our preschoolers.
Our preschool program recognizes that children learn best in a carefully structured learning environments, which include learning centers, story time, and group play. Spanish vocabulary and speech is integrated into Circle Time activities and throughout the day. Our preschoolers are also introduced to cooking with hands-on cooking lessons each month. Funtastic offers many opportunities for your child to explore their interests and participate in group activities.
Goals For Our Preschoolers:
- Promote positive interactions with others, foster cooperation with each other, develop self- help skills, and development of each child’s self-esteem and confidence
- Encouragement for them to follow basic self-care routines such as hand-washing, potty time, prepping for nap time, and more
- Guidance towards problem-solving and conflict resolution
- Early literacy activities to promote language arts skills
- Math and Science activities to promote school-readiness and critical thinking
- Develop fine and gross motor skills through games and activities which build strong muscles and help them master their body (Our large inside play area and outside playground offer plenty of room to facilitate the motor needs of our children.)
- Develop their love of creative expression and elevate their creativity through arts and crafts and creative music and movement activities
