Age Groups
Preschool
24 months - 36 months
The Creative Curriculum is built around the idea that children learn best through active exploration and meaningful experiences. Our toddler classes emphasize play-based learning through child-centered activities, teacher-guided exploration, and social-emotional growth alongside academics.
Pre-K
3 - 4 years
As students progress through our program, we shift our focus towards preparing them for grammar school and beyond. Our Preschool classes emphasize daily routines that balance teacher-directed group activities, such as circle time and story time, child-initiated play, outdoor exploration, rest and meals.
Our Curriculum
Early childhood education helps establish lifelong learning patterns and as such, our students' development and education are our top priority.
To ensure we adequately meet the needs of each child in our care, Pee Wee Prep follows The Creative Curriculum for Preschools, one of the top rated curricula for early childhood education approved by the State of New Jersey.
This comprehensive system is designed to support children from infancy, blending academic learning with social-emotional development through hands-on, play-based experiences.
