Thank you for considering Wheaton Bible Church Preschool for your child. The preschool years of a child are one of the most important developmental stages they will ever go through. Experts tell us that more change occurs for a child during the preschool years than any other time in their life. Our teaching staff is very experienced, loving, and caring and strives to patiently guide your child as he or she learns about themselves and the world God has placed them in. The teaching staff and curriculum focus on "Loving God, Loving Others and Loving Learning." We look forward to the opportunity to serve you.
Esther Erickson, Director
Classes are divided by age. Please click on the specific program for a complete description of Bible emphasis, themes, daily art / craft projects, music, gym, class times and cost.
The daily program is designed to be a balance between structured and unstructured time with large group, small group and individual experiences. The amount of time spent on these activities will vary with the age of the child. The daily program includes the following:
Free Choice Time/Craft Activities: This popular time involves free choice between creative-themed interest centers that change weekly. The craft follows the theme of the day, and each child is individually guided through this activity.
Music/Circle Time: Songs, finger plays and rhythm activities follow the theme for each day. Readiness activities and games are a part of this fun time of day. Three-year-old classes have a planned music time with a trained music teacher.
Snack Time: After prayer, we serve fruit juice and a nutritious snack.
Story Time: Good literature is part of each day. Stories are chosen on the basis of theme and appeal to children. Bible stories are also included.
Large Motor Activites: Children enjoy climbing, crawling, jumping etc. in our large indoor play center. Balls, balance beam, hoops and bikes are also enjoyed in our activity gym. Everyday children enjoy 15-20 minutes of active gym time.
