Zoo Pals

Pre-kindergarten is a critical time for children as they begin the adventure of a lifetime of learning. Our Zoo Pals program promotes independence while preparing your child for the next exciting phases—kindergarten! We make the transition smoother by helping children become more familiar with an organized environment. We focus on group play to develop social skills, such as listening, sharing, and cooperation. Our teachers have a passion for what they do and consider it a privilege to partner with you during this special time in your child’s life. Our goal for all preschoolers is to help prepare them to be successful in Kindergarten and reach their full potential.
