A Typical Day in Our 3-Year-Old Program

Each day follows a predictable rhythm so children feel safe and engaged.

  1. Circle Time

    We gather to sing songs, share news, and learn the calendar—building community and language skills.

  2. Project and Play Time

    Children explore art, sensory bins, and dramatic play while teachers guide early learning concepts.

  3. Story and Snack

    A cozy storytime followed by a nutritious snack promotes listening skills and healthy habits.

  4. Gross Motor Activity

    Outdoor recess on our large, securely fenced playground or indoor play in our multi-purpose room keeps little bodies moving.
