Circle of Friends is open year round for day care between the hours of 6:30am to 5:30pm. Between the hours of 6:30am to 8:30am children are arriving and have the opportunity to use their imaginations in one of the four spacious, custom designed play areas.
In the truck and block area, children build dinosaur landscapes and city dwellings.
In the play kitchen, dinner can be cooked, groceries can be bought, and dressing up is fun!
In the Fisher Price area, imaginations run wild playing with the many adventure sets.
In the drawing area, children foster their creativity and fine motor skills using crayons, markers, pencils and other manipulatives.
Between 8:30am and 12:30pm, September to June, all full day children participate in the preschool. At 12:30pm, all preschool children leave and full day children have lunch until 1:30pm. By 1:30pm, all children whose parents want them to nap are laying down on a cot with their special blanket and stuffed animal. After a brief "quiet time", the other children go outside and play in the open fields, large playground, or sledding hills.
At 3:00pm, children are coming in from outside, napping children are awake, and another snack is provided. Depending upon the time of year and weather, from 3:30pm to 5:30pm we all go back outside to play in the fresh air, or children can once again use their imaginations in one of the four spacious, custom designed play areas.
