3-4 Year-Old Class

The Magical 3’s and 4’s

So full of life! That’s how we describe the amazing 3- and 4-year old children at our center. They are energetic, creative, and they learn something new every day! We love interacting with them!

They are also inquisitive and curious, so they need constant supervision to make sure they stay safe. As they develop socially, they need guidance to understand that every person is valuable and that they are cared for and loved. We love teaching and caring for our 3’s and 4’s and providing the individual attention each one needs and deserves.
