Your Preschool in Chandler: Preschool Q&A

As a preschool in Chandler, we get a lot of questions from parents, especially new ones.

Our children are precious to us.  So sometimes parents need reasons to send their kids to a formal preschool as opposed to home schooling them, and merely having childcare instead.  How important could it be, and what benefits would be served by going to our Chandler preschool, or any preschool for that matter?   Well your children are going to need every advantage that they can get before they start kindergarten.
Let's face it.  The world is not the same place it was when we were children.  For one, things are a lot more complicated than they used to be.  In addition, over the last fifty years, we have learned a lot about how much children learn in just their first few years of life.  It is really quite amazing how much they are constantly learning, and not just in a classroom and not just by a curriculum of study.  Throughout their early childhood, they learn key skills such as social interaction, physical development, creativity, self-worth, and cognitive skills.  This is the main reason for the importance of early childhood education.
Even during play for example, children are learning important lessons. They learn rules and fair play, and boundaries as well.   One of the most important skills they will learn during play and other times is socialization.

Socialization and Early Childhood Education

Why does socialization matter?  People are gregarious, social creatures.  Our biology, our family structures, and our society at large are all based on us gathering together. Without socialization, we start missing out on opportunities that life presents. Socialization is something that every toddler needs.  While it is possible to organize opportunities for social interaction at home, it cannot compare to the myriad combinations that children will encounter during their interactions with each other in a preschool environment.  You can try to organize opportunities for social interaction at home or other settings. But the group activity that your child will get at a preschool on a weekly basis cannot be duplicated. They are exposed to new ideas, and see children from other backgrounds.
During socialization, your children learn invaluable lessons,  such as how to share and how to take turns.  They learn how to follow directions, wait in line, and raise their hands.  Most importantly of all, they learn how to interact with others.
All of these lessons and more are part and parcel to the learning experience that a Chandler preschool can offer.
