Preschool
Your preschooler is growing up fast, potty-trained and eager to learn new things. At this age, your child is more coordinated and is absorbing lots of information every day.
At Little Sunshine’s Playhouse, your child’s day is carefully planned out with a variety of hands-on activities to encourage learning and socialization. Your child is taught to write their name and recognize letters, numbers, colors and shapes. Preschool teachers introduce concepts like opposites, identifying emotions and basic directional skills. At this age, we also put a large focus on teaching self-awareness and fostering independence by helping your child master their self-help skills.
We design our preschool classrooms with these developmental milestones in mind and equip each classroom with age-appropriate, educational toys to help continue inspiring your child’s curiosity and desire to learn and engage with their classmates and their environment.

We stumbled upon Little Sunshine's and I know that it was a divine intervention. This has been the BEST environment for our now 2-year-old. She has been there for over a year and has absolutely blossomed! Our daughter comes home every day and has news skills to show us, new words that she has learned and even yoga poses that she tries out. This isn't just a school, it is an extension of our family!"
