In our 3-year-old room, your child will be fully involved in our preschool routine. Children engage in a number of group activities and circle time, which allows your child to learn plenty of verbal and social skills. There is also daily free time which will help your child develop the skills for independence. We hope that our 3yr olds are potty trained by the time they enter this room, but are here to support kids who are still in training!
