TEACHING CHILDREN FOR OVER 50 YEARS

Lakewood Preschool provides a safe and caring environment for our students.  We make learning fun through art, music, gym, cooking, stories, singing, learning centers, and hands-on activities.  We help foster the children to have positive self-esteem and develop the basic skills for successful social interaction with their peers and adults. We focus on general preparation for kindergarten readiness skills which include: learning colors, numbers, letters, rhyming, opposites, sequencing, using scissors, writing their name along with many other skills.
