Garden Room

Preschool Program for 3 year olds

Teachers: Lisa Escobar & Lucy Picon

Garden Room Teacher

The Garden Room is where our 3 year olds start their world of adventure.  They must be potty trained by the time they start.  They will develop one of the most important social skills in life; learning to cope in an environment away from their home.  The Garden Room is a cozy yet colorful, energetic, activity-filled environment.  Once our 9 am bell has been rung our little friends wash their hands and have snack (provided by KW).  They then sit for a rug time which could include a pre-math skill, flannel board story and lots of music with singing to help in language development.  They then get up to play.  This play involves self-directed play as well as teacher-directed activities including gardening.

The Garden Room is set up with a Lego/building table, wooden blocks, a play dough/clay table, a science area, a tree house (which is where most of the dramatic play takes place), dress up clothes and a cut and color table. These are always available to children during inside play time. The teachers meet weekly to plan their lessons with the idea of mixing a few teaching theories: thematic as well as emergent.  The curriculum covers language and literature, pre-math, science and discovery, language arts, cognitive skills and music and movement.

From our Parents and Students

I’m sad. I miss my friends at school. I love that school.

David – Kid Works Student

Both my children attended Kid Works and loved it. Their program is the best and provides age appropriate skills for preschoolers to learn and grow.  The staff and facility are amazing and the schedule is also great for working families.  My boys have thrived at Kid Works and being part of this community has been a true gift to our family.

We discovered Kid Works from a friend and have loved the experience. The staff feel like family and it’s hard to get my son to leave in the evening. He is free to be dirty and encouraged to be hands on with all of the various and ever changing activities. There is a garden growing vegetables, water stations, pet bunnies, pet birds, and pet rats..etc. One day my parents came to pick up my son and he was busing his own dishes from snack time. He immediately came home and wanted to help with our dishes. Things like this are ever day events at Kid Works. We are so happy our friend recommended this wonderful preschool.

Awesome school, awesome teachers, awesome owner.  My son attended here when he was 3 years old.  The school opened up his imagination and artistic skills.  He is now 6 and doing great in Kinder.  Our second child, who is 3 years old, now attends Kid Works and loves it even more.  This place is a must visit if you are looking for a place that will care for your toddlers.

We absolutely love Kidworks! Our daughter has so enjoyed it there. The teachers and administration are friendly and just the right amount of firm. The school is so, so organized. Lot’s of process and procedure, which is great for busy mommas!

This is our first year with our son, and we couldn’t be happier!  The teachers feel like family and our son LOVES being at preschool.  Their concept is very much up our alley; play and exploration 😉  They even have an organic garden, mud play and yoga!”

I feel really good about our son being at Kid Works. As a parent with over-protective tendencies, I don’t feel the typical pangs of concern that I am prone to. I feel that he is not only incredibly safe there, but also very well nurtured in an environment that teaches him to be his own little man. I am so grateful for his experiences and growth, I cannot recommend Kid Works highly enough.
