Tiny Tots

Play, Learn & Grow 

Tiny Tots is a play-based preschool for children ages 3 to 5, including those entering kindergarten the following fall. Tiny Tots gives kids opportunities to explore, create, play and make new friends through a variety of activities.

Activities 

Children learn by doing, we offer a wide variety of activities. Plan on having fun! Sometimes art and play time are a little messy, please dress your child appropriately. We include arts and crafts, storytelling, games, cooking, music, fun fitness and outdoor play.

Tiny Tots follows the four building blocks of school readiness: 

  • Self-Care 

  • Motor Skills 

  • Self-Regulation & Emotional Expression 

  • K-Academics 

Requirements 

  • Children need to be completely potty-trained and capable of attending to their own needs, to the best of their ability.  

  • Be able to separate from their parents. 

  • Meet age requirements on the first day of class. Please bring proof of age the first day. This applies to both new and continuing students.
