Pre-K Classes
As preschoolers gain more self-esteem, they feel ready to take on the world. Our preschool curriculum enhances their confidence by providing activities to help them become problem solvers and nurture a love of learning. With independent exploration, structured activities, and hands-on learning, our children develop a variety of skills and knowledge in areas from mathematics to reading.
Early learning standards, backed by education experts, inform the scope and sequence of our pre-k program. Our curriculum aligns to 72 learning standards across six developmental domains. Add a healthy dose of running, jumping and movement to keep children active and you'll see why Happy Hands is a leader in early childhood education.
Pre-K Focus Areas
Math Exploration
Children compare, sort, follow sequences, and solve simple number problems so math feels connected to real life, not just memorizing numbers.
Science Studies
Through cooking projects, experiments, and simple tools, children explore physics, chemistry, and earth science in hands-on ways.
Creative Expressions
Process-based art, sculpting, bookmaking, and dramatic play help children express ideas with clay, color, costume, and story.
Cultural Sharing
We celebrate many traditions and foster respect, compassion, and curiosity about different cultures, lifestyles, and families.
Physical Wellness
Daily movement, healthy eating habits, and personal hygiene routines support children in making caring choices for their bodies.
