Why is Preschool Important?

Let’s Grow Kids Vermont

believes that every child deserves a strong start and equal chance in life. They state on their website that

“A baby’s brain makes 700-1,000 new connections every second. To strengthen these connections, children need nurturing relationships & play-based stimulating learning opportunities.”

Parents can support their children’s development by providing nurturing environments for their children including early learning experiences such as Preschool.

Preschool provides a foundation for:

future learning and skill-building
social-emotional development and developing good relationships, in school and in life
fostering independence
getting ready for Kindergarten
