Improving every aspect of your children’s development through different learning experiences.

Our preschool program offers a curriculum that stimulates both left and right brain activities in a setting that reflects quality childcare in Brooklyn, New York. This is the stage where your children discover their own areas of interest and gain the motivation to hone the skills they have acquired. Through various interactions, your child will begin to establish a strong foundation for lifelong learning.

We at Building Blocks Land believe that both caring and learning are crucial to children’s motivation to learn. That’s why our staff strive to implement an extensive curriculum and an encouraging environment.

At this stage in their life, children are naturally curious and love to ask questions. They feel fulfilled when they do things on their own and receive compliments. Your little ones’ progress in speech and literacy, as well as in their gross and fine motor skills.

Preschool (2-3 Years Old)

Language Arts and Literacy

To enhance their speaking skills and widen their vocabulary, we create opportunities for them to sing, chant, and perform plays. Our teachers will encourage them to read as many books as they can and retell the stories they’ve learned using pictures.

Three-year-olds will listen to stories, retell them, and recite simple nursery rhymes. Classroom discussion will be implemented to give children an outlet to express their ideas. They will begin to recognize print and identify letters and names. We organize dramatic plays, using building blocks, and library visits to promote language development.

Children will learn how to sequence items, practice counting using age-appropriate tools, and solve simple math problems. Our teachers will guide your children in classifying objects.

Our teachers give them every opportunity to use their problem-solving skills by implementing activities that involve investigation.

Your little ones will also learn about the weather, seasons, and how things operate.

They will develop their observation and problem-solving skills. Your kids will gain basic knowledge of people, plants, animals, and weather.
