Preschool Services

O ur preschool classrooms encourage young

learners to explore the environment and
work with interesting materials. Classrooms
are spacious, with learning centers for activities
such as art, dramatic play, math and science,
block building, manipulative toys, reading and
computer technology. Each day includes teacher-
guided class activities as well as opportunities
for children to learn and play independently.

In the preschool program, your child will begin

to develop organization, self-control and
self-awareness, and build pre-reading and
pre-writing skills. Preschoolers also learn about
being a friend and getting along with other
children and adults. During daily outdoor play,
children have fun and build strength as they
climb, run, balance, throw, pedal, and jump. Lehigh Valley Children’s Centers, Inc.
