About Little Einstein Preschool in North Chandler, AZ.

We gather all our three-year-olds as a group to talk about our day, plan our learning journey, and share stories. Children explore and experiment in small groups as they solve problems and record their observations. Our teachers integrate elements of science, math, social studies, and creative arts each day to encourage children to develop their skills. 

Our teachers often read stories aloud to foster a love for reading and encourage children to read. They plan rich literacy engagements every day that develop essential skills such as concepts of print, phonological awareness, letter-sound knowledge, vocabulary, oral language, listening, and reading comprehension. 

Children lead their own learning during our Enriching Playtime. Our center is designed to give children independence and promote unique learning opportunities. Children can choose from a variety of activities including dramatic play, construction, literacy, writing, creative arts, math/manipulatives, science, computers, easel and sensory tables.

Once your child enters our Lions room, we begin to incorporate a more structured learning day to help ready them for their upcoming school days. We aim to teach emotional, social, and cognitive concepts that are easily understood and incorporated into their daily lives. Our preschoolers will experience a range of activities that will introduce them to different developmental concepts:

Our curriculum includes:

🗣️ Language and Literacy: Learning to associate sounds with written words, identifying all letters of the alphabet, and learning to write their name and familiar words. They will also explore shapes, numbers, colors, and much more!

🔣 Mathematics: Learning to match, sort, make comparisons between objects, and understand complex concepts like over, under, behind, and in front.

🔬 Learning About the World & Science:  Participating in simple investigations, predicting results based on past experiences, and learning the importance of collecting, describing, and recording information.

🧠 Approaches to Learning: Developing an eagerness to learn about new ideas, maintaining concentration despite distractions, and increasing the ability to find more than one solution to a question or problem.

🏃‍♂️ Physical Health & Development: Improving hand-eye coordination through ball games, growing independence in personal hygiene, and using pencils, markers, scissors, and paintbrushes with increased control.

🧑‍🎓 At Little Einstein Preschool, we believe that learning should be fun and engaging. We strive to provide a nurturing environment that encourages exploration and discovery while preparing our preschoolers for a successful future.

Little Einstein Preschool’s after-school programs, including Homework Zone, Kids Stations, and Kids Club, provide a structured and engaging environment for school-age children. Our programs are designed to not only help kids stay on track with their homework but also provide them with a fun and educational experience in a social atmosphere. 

Our Homework Zone is a time set aside each afternoon for children to focus on their homework. We work closely with families to come up with a homework plan that works best for them.

Kids Stations offer various activities for children to rotate through, including Investigation Station for science investigations, Creations Stations for sculpting, paintings, and crafts, On-Stage Stations for imaginative play, and Challenge Stations for games, competitions, and puzzles.

Kids Club offers a fun and engaging experience with a group huddle to plan the day, learning stations for imaginative play, outdoor adventures with state-of-the-art playground equipment and a garden for planting, group games and a special interests club such as LEGO building, stepping/dancing, gardening, beads and jewelry, and more! 

We understand that each child learns differently and has their own interests, and we strive to offer programs that are geared towards their unique needs and preferences.

It’s almost time for elementary school! This final full-time stage at Little Einstein is all about preparing your child for the transition into school.

As this may be one of your childs first major life changes, the Tigers room room is designed to promote social skills and resilience, to prepare them for this next adventure. Group activities and collaborative projects create an environment where children learn to problem solve, share, and communicate in a safe environment.

With an emphasis on cognitive development, our Tigers also engage in play-based learning activities that foster intellectual growth. From hands-on puzzles to interactive games, our Tigers room is perfect for developing critical thinking skills, and problem-solving abilities, as well as building upon all the skills they have been working on during their time at Little Einstein.
