Kindergarten LUV!

Hey hey everyone!!

So.. Spring is a pretty exciting time in our schools! We start enrolling for kindergarten!! Not only do we get new friends, but we get to watch the friends that we've watched since the toddler room prepare for kindergarten!!! Its usually SO fun!! This year is a little bitter sweet for me because my baby is one of the kids in our pre-k program that's getting ready for the big change! ( She couldn't be more excited!) As most of you may know kindergarten is not required in the state of Utah, actually its not required in most states! So as I see the signs at our center and the schools for kindergarten round up I start thinking.. If its not required, do parents know the importance of kindergarten? Well, just in case we are going to go over some reasons why its so crucial to have this year before they head to first grade! Hopefully weather your doing public school or our kindergarten program this will shed some light for ya! P.S We hope you come to our program!!!!

In our program your child will:

Learn the basics! This means they will learn the basics of reading, writing, and math. That way when they get to first grade they are prepared for what the teacher has to teach!

Learn how to socialize! This is a BIG one! In our program they will learn how to make new friends, share, and problem solve by using their words and not their hands or feet! They will develop the skills needed to socialize not only in small groups but larger ones as well!

Learn how a routine works! There is so much to learn in kindergarten! That means everyday they follow a schedule to help them stay on task and into the habit of sitting, listening and learning!

So maybe I'm a little biased towards our kindergarten program!! But.. I know both teachers personally and they are AMAZING at what they do! I've had 2 of my own kids graduate from our program and have moved on to do wonderfully in first grade! There are a ton more benefits to kindergarten then I have time to go over today, but I hope these few are enough to make your decision a little easier! And if you or someone you know is on the fence about kindergarten, I encourage you to do some research, talk to teachers and make the decision that best fits your little one!
