Preschool

Welcome to preschool, where we get them ready for what comes next …“Big Kid School!”

Day Care
WELCOME TO

Bees Learning Tree Inc. Preschool Center

This age is all about expression, when kids really start to form their own ideas about what they want to play and how they want to create. Every day in our preschool classroom, your child will explore science experiments, create artwork, and play pretend.

All the skills needed for their big next step: kindergarten! 

Explore the Preschool Classroom

Take a look at how we set up our classroom for preschoolers. It’s organized for their age and stage of learning and development.

Open-Ended Questions

As your preschooler moves through their day, they’ll hear a lot of open-ended questions. For example, instead of saying, “Paint your flower petals with red and yellow,” we might ask, “What color would you paint your flower?” It’s a small change that makes a big difference in building your child’s confidence.

Preschoolers Play Their Way

For much of the day, kids create, play, pretend, and express themselves their way! This kind of independent play builds critical thinking skills, self-reliance, and confidence for life.

Preschool Curriculum

Our incredible teachers are here to offer the safest place and most inspiring learning environment for you preschooler. Your child will practice language, math, science, Spanish, Sign language, Arabic, and social skills through hands-on learning and playtime.
 
We get preschoolers ready for kindergarten by reading lots of books, identifying rhyming words, and writing. Singing songs and playing games help them notice similar sounding words.
 
Children in our classroom are constantly building on their new skills—and that includes the ones needed for making friends and communicating feelings. We help preschoolers talk about feelings, show them how to resolve conflicts, and support them as they make friends.
