Academic experts agree: Preschool is a vital step to make sure your children are ready for prekindergarten and kindergarten. Academic research shows that preschool programs have made a positive impact on early literacy, social emotional learning, and academic success, according to a recent study.

Experiences in preschool curriculum like STEAM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts and  Math) offered at Kid E Nation pave the way for student success later in life.

Here are the Top 5 reasons you should enroll your child in preschool

  1. Building independence. Young children benefit from learning to take care of themselves and others in a structured preschool environment that stresses play and learning. For many, it helps ease the transition later to pre-kindergarten and kindergarten by making sure children are comfortable in a secure atmosphere away from their parents with trained, caring teachers in an academic setting.
  2. Developing social skills: Children transition to a classroom setting, learning to share and play with their peers. Young children learn social skills and emotional self-control in “real time.” “Three- and 4-year-olds learn through their experiences and good teachers make time for those ‘teachable moments’ when they can help children learn to manage frustrations or anger,” according to greatschools.org
  3. Recognizing shapes, colors and objects: Preschool structured activities can help children learn to recognize objects and colors, Teachers can help nurture a child’s curiosity by using their interests and ideas to create fun educational activities.
  4. Getting a head start on reading and math: Learning their ABC’s and how to count to 10 can set the stage for a successful transition to kindergarten and elementary school. High-quality preschool programs introduce early literacy and math skills not as isolated exercises, but in the context of activities that are interesting and meaningful to children, according to greatschools.org.
  5. Developing motor skills: Through outdoor play and activities children can develop fine motor skills. At Kid E Nation, we allow time for children to run, climb and play active games, developing physically, as well.

In Kid E Nation’s structured preschool curriculum, children flourish and develop self-esteem, independence, self-respect, problem solving skills and how to communicate with their peers. We educate the “whole-child” – physically, emotionally, mentally, socially and by giving them the tools to help them make the “right choices.”
