Playschool (Age 3-4)

Circle time

In this program for three-year olds, basic pre-kindergarten activities are integrated into the curriculum to introduce concepts of language, math, science and socialization disguised as fun! Our Tiny Tots Playschool class is primarily outdoors and promotes physical, social, and emotional growth in a fun, child-centered environment. Our goal is to foster a love of learning through play and daily activities. Our classroom is in the charming and recently renovated San Antonio Club (647 N San Antonio Road, Los Altos, CA).

 

Curriculum

The main focus of Playschool is learning social skills and basic preschool concepts.

Activities include: language development, letter recognition, music and movement, games, cooking, basic math, science and biology, arts and crafts, sensory activities, special events, as well as directed and self-directed play.
