Garfield Co-op Preschool employs a play-based curriculum to prepare your child for kindergarten and beyond. We offer preschool programs for 3-year-olds and 4-year-olds and a Parent-Toddler program.

Our programs foster a positive idea of school, a healthy self image and a strong knowledge of academic concepts.

Our daily routine combines both structured and open-ended activities to provide children with opportunities for social, cognitive and creative development! Optional field trips throughout the year support the curriculum and allow the kids (and parents!) to have some fun outside of the classroom. Daily activities include circle time, art projects, fine motor tasks, free play and gross motor activities! Each class period also has a designated snack time.

Our spacious classroom allows us to provide children with many choices for free play including blocks, puzzles, doll houses, dress-up, reading nook, art easels etc.
