Preschool
Program
Description
The Preschool Program is for
children of at least 2 years of age and who is out of
diapers/pull-ups and can use the facilities. Age appropriate
activities are planned and include sharing time, finger play,
easel art, table art, science and math, learning games, creative
movement/gross motor skills and computer time.
Snacks
Nutritional snacks are served to
the children mid-morning and mid-afternoon. Children may provide a
nutritional snack for a birthday, holiday, or on other occasions.
However, all snacks must be store bought and include ingredient
label.
Lunch
A lunch will be provided which
provides for at least one-third of the child's recommended daily
dietary allowance supplied from the four basic food groups. The
lunch menus are posted each week. Substitutions may be made for
various side dishes, but will still be from that food group. The
children will go to the dining room and sit at tables as a family
with staff members.
Naptime
Children are provided with a nap or
rest period in the afternoon on individual cots. We ask parents to
provide a blanket and pillow that can fit in a backpack or bag,
and be easily packed by the child. Children may bring a stuffed
animal or other security item for rest time.
