What Your Child Will Explore at The Biggest Little Preschool
Where learning is playful, purposeful, and full of discovery
In our program, we focus on STEAM learning, combining Science, Technology, Engineering, Art, and Math. Children explore mathematical concepts like counting, patterns, estimation, and simple addition, along with sorting, graphing, and calendar awareness. They also engage in hands-on science activities related to weather, nature, recycling, and color blending, helping them develop critical thinking skills through experiments and sensory play. Through art, children express creativity and explore concepts like color, texture, and design, fostering imagination alongside problem-solving skills.
Our Language Development includes songs, storytelling with visuals, fun family phonics, letter recognition, and pre-writing skills, fostering conversation, listening, and a love for reading. Dramatic play helps children express themselves creatively.
We support Fine Motor Skills through art, cutting, and manipulating small objects, helping them develop dexterity and coordination. For Gross Motor Skills, we provide games, outdoor activities, walks, and field trips, encouraging physical exploration and risk-taking.
In Social/Emotional Development, children learn values like friendship, respect, kindness, and responsibility. They practice sharing, turn-taking, problem-solving, and following classroom rules, while building confidence and self-control.
We incorporate Yoga & Relaxation to help children relax and focus.
Each child also has the opportunity to be the VIP Preschooler, where they share a special picture or book with the class. We also celebrate Birthdays with songs and special badges, while being mindful of allergies by not allowing food items.
