At Our Shine Academy and Learning Center, our Jr. Preschool Program provides the perfect introduction to structured learning for 3- to 4-year-olds. Designed to encourage independence, socialization, and foundational academic skills, our program fosters your child’s natural curiosity while preparing them for the next step in their educational journey.
Our Jr. Preschool Program blends play-based learning with structured activities to help children develop cognitively, socially, and emotionally. Through hands-on experiences, engaging lessons, and nurturing care, your child will thrive in a safe and stimulating environment.
During this stage, children achieve important milestones, including:
Learning to share, take turns, and build friendships.
Expanding vocabulary, forming sentences, and improving communication skills.
Recognizing letters, numbers, shapes, and colors.
Cutting with scissors, drawing, and building with blocks.
Managing emotions, following routines, and practicing patience.
