3K Program

The 3K program is a private, tuition-based program that provides young learners with a developmentally appropriate, play-based introduction to school. Children build independence, social skills, and early learning foundations through meaningful play and guided experiences.

What We Teach

Our 3K program provides a nurturing, play-based environment where young learners grow socially, emotionally, and academically at their own pace. Through intentional play and guided instruction, children develop foundational skills that prepare them for future learning while building confidence and independence.

​

Social & Emotional Learning
Children practice sharing, taking turns, problem-solving, and expressing emotions as they learn to be part of a classroom community.

​

Language & Communication
Daily stories, songs, conversations, and group discussions help strengthen listening skills, vocabulary, and early communication.

​

Early Math & Reasoning
Children explore numbers, shapes, patterns, sorting, and spatial awareness through hands-on activities and everyday classroom experiences.

​

Creative & Sensory Exploration
Art, music, sensory play, and imaginative activities encourage creativity, curiosity, and self-expression.

​

Physical Development
Fine and gross motor skills are developed through classroom movement, manipulatives, and hands-on materials that support coordination and control.

​

Self-Help Skills
Children build independence by practicing routines such as cleaning up, managing personal belongings, following directions, and developing age-appropriate self-care skills.
