Small Wonders Preschool
Our goal is to ensure that each child develops the desire and incentive to learn. Since 2000, we have fostered a Christian atmosphere where children are comfortable trying new activities with confidence. Through a carefully planned environment and curriculum, we aim to encourage each child in an individualized manner.
Through "play" experiences, each child will discover, explore and master new ideas and skills that will prepare them for the school year ahead. All of our activities are designed to ensure that your child's first school years are a positive, growing experience.
Parents are always welcome at Small Wonders Preschool. We want to encourage parents to become involved perhaps by sharing a hobby, interest, or occupation with their child's class. We also welcome parent volunteers in the classroom.
At Small Wonders your child will
Develop a positive self-image, sense of self-confidence, a spirit of creativity, and acceptance of responsibility.
Learn to share, cooperate, consider the feelings of others, develop polite manners, listening skills and more.
Progress in large muscle coordination (jumping, climbing, catching, etc.) and small muscle coordination (writing, cutting, etc.)
In a playful manner, learn basic numbers, math, letters, colors, language development, history, and science.
Grow in knowledge of God as our loving Creator who cares for each one of us. This is emphasized through Bible stories, songs, and is taught along with other curriculum materials in a non-denominational Christian manner.
