Preschool Drawing

Your preschooler’s mind is hard at work building the knowledge and skills it will use for a lifetime. Now, more than ever, it’s important to challenge their curious minds with activities that will keep them engaged and eager to learn! The Young Rembrandts preschool program is specifically designed with the needs of our youngest learners in mind. We use subjects they’re familiar with such as animals and toys, as well as their favorite learning tools – pictures, stories, touching, and doing – to enhance social and conflict resolution skills while improving listening, fine-motor skills, and time-on-task. Give your preschooler the information they’re hungry for and be amazed by what they’ll create!
