The Importance of Preschool!
Did you know that 90% of a child’s brain develops before the age of 5? That is why early childhood programs and education are so important! Preschool provides a time for your child to develop literacy and numeracy skills while engaging with peers to gain a sense of self, build confidence, explore, and learn to regulate their emotions. Preschool will:
- Prepare your child for kindergarten
- Promote social and emotional development
- Promote language and cognitive skills
- boost pre-math and literacy skills
Children who go to preschool are 20% more likely to graduate from institutes of higher learning!
