Providing Quality Child Care & Early Education

Pre-Kindergarten Education Program — 3 - 5 Years Old

In keeping with our educational philosophy, Children on the Green uses The Creative Curriculum, an evidence-based, state Dept. of Education-approved curriculum. With children’s interests as the jumping-off point, teachers plan developmentally appropriate activities that foster each child's social, emotional, physical and cognitive growth. In Pre-K, children’s days are filled with structured activities and free play in literacy, math, art, science, music, blocks, dramatic play and movement. Our pre-K kids learn to love learning and graduate ready for kindergarten!

The philosophy behind Creative Curriculum is that young children learn best by doing. Learning isn’t just repeating back what someone else says, it’s exploring and experimenting to find out how things work. Through the way we organize the classroom, the activities we plan with the children and the way we organize the daily schedule, we support a child’s social, emotional, cognitive and physical development and help them to become inquisitive, enthusiastic and self-confident learners for life.
