We offer an innovative preschool experience for children age 3 - 4 years old. Integrated within our kindergarten, our preschool experience provides our young students with an expanded social circle within the context of a peaceful and nurturing context for their imagination, physical challenges for their bodies and a loving, beautiful environment for their well-being. Our home-like classroom environment eases the child’s transition from home life into school.

Every morning the children enjoy spending time both in and out of doors. Splashing in puddles, marveling at the budding daffodils, or running with the winds brings a healthy glow to the young faces! Indoor time helps the children learn to play together. Homemade snacks keep them fueled for mornings filled with movement and fun.

Seasonal activities and festivals mark the rhythm of the changing natural world throughout the year. For instance, in the fall the children may cut and cook apples for  applesauce and make lanterns to lighten the growing darkness.

Preschool Experience Details

Our preschool experience hosts children daily from 8:15 a.m. to 12:30 p.m. Children should be three years old by September 1st and be potty trained. The preschool follows the Three Cedars Waldorf School calendar. Extended care is available until 5:30 p.m.

Regular parent evenings are held throughout the school year, as a time for sharing questions and resources. We will also explore the foundations of Waldorf early childhood education. Private annual conferences offer parents time to discuss their child’s development in-depth alone with the teacher.
