Both YMCA Preschools use the "Creative Curriculum." Lesson plans and daily activities are based around a weekly structured theme. Each day your child will be exposed to activities in the following areas: books, science, art, sand and water, clocks, table toys, home living, and Bible verses. Your child's day will be balanced with structure and free choice play. Our Character Development traits (Honesty, Responsibility, Caring, Respect, and Faith) are implemented throughout the program.
