Indoor and Outdoor Explorations

First Days of PreK

We had a great start to PreK.  The children are learning each other's names and checking out the different areas of the classroom.  Playdough, kinetic sand and finger painting have been big hits as well as playing on the playground.  We also like the dramatic play areas as well as the sensory table.
