Preschool 2 is a multi-age setting, with children ranging in age between 2-5 years old, including the Kindergarten- Ladybugs. Our play experiences are based on the children’s particular needs, interests, or development levels. We often design our program with specific skills or tasks in mind, helping the children to have the opportunity to learn at their own pace.  In our profession this is called, “Emergent Curriculum”.
Acknowledging the developmental needs of the children, some of the general goals and objectives we have are:

• Encouraging independence in the children to make choices for themselves, when choices are available, in a safe environment.
• Enhancing children's development in the three main areas-cognitive growth, social/emotional growth, and physical growth.
• Providing developmentally stimulating play experiences
• Allowing children to explore a wide array of natural and interesting materials to provoke curiosity so they may have a better understanding of the world around them.
