 Preschool for 3–5 Year Olds

## Curious Minds, Confident Little Foxes

Our Pre-K program in Lockport, NY is designed for children ages three to five who are not yet in school.

We provide a safe, nurturing environment where children explore, create, and develop the skills they need to thrive in kindergarten and beyond. Each day balances hands-on learning, social-emotional growth, and imaginative play to support the whole child.

Your little fox will engage in project-based learning, sensory-rich activities, and collaborative play, all designed to nurture cognitive, social, and emotional growth. Our caregivers provide individualized attention, helping each child develop at their own pace while feeling supported, seen, and loved.

We focus on:

- Early literacy and pre-writing skills
- Hands-on math and science exploration
- Social-emotional development through cooperative play
- Creativity and imagination through art, music, and storytelling
- Mindfulness and self-regulation activities
- Preparedness for kindergarten routines and expectations
