Junior Pre-K (3-4 years): The Skill Builders Program

Preschoolers are like sponges — they soak up knowledge. At Childtime educational daycare, our Skill Builders Program for children ages 3-4 encourages growth and learning with days filled with active and fun activities.

Social, verbal, cognitive and physical skills are built through activities that engage children — counting out straws for milk, identifying the first letter of each child’s name or cooperating to assemble a puzzle. It’s all fun, and all done with a purpose. Our teachers use developmental assessments to plan activities for your child to help her meet learning goals. Through large groups and small, individualized instruction, your child will work on early literacy and math skills daily.

• Motor Skill Development — outdoor games, dancing, movement.
• Language Development — recognizing and forming letters, story time, speech.
• Imaginative Development — arts and crafts, dramatic play, storytelling.
• Social Development — large- and small-group activities, sharing, cooperation.

This development is a key part of The Empowered Child^™ curriculum, designed by early education specialists and following the guidelines for developmentally appropriate practice set forth by national accrediting associations. It’s part of an educational child care program that will get your child ready for kindergarten and beyond.
