Friendly Forest Preschool - how lucky we are!
to have a school like this one... it's better by far
it isn't about riding a bicycle and printing your name by three
it's letting them be a child, experimenting and just letting them "BE"
playing with play-dough, water and sand
and letting the butterflies free
planting a garden, respecting nature and hugging a tree
teaching them loving things big and small & how to get along
dancing, jumping, prancing while singing "their" song
we can not express the love we feel
we see it in the teachers' eyes
to see you hold them when they needed or or when a child cries
picking them up - brushing them off and sending them on their way
to be 3 & 4 years old to go out and just play
making meals, hammering nails, field trips, dressing up and having fun
wish we could stay longer but our time here at friendly forest is done.
Thank you for all your patience and everything you do!!!
We will always remember Friendly Forest - the children and especially you!!!

Award for Excellence in Early Childhood Education
Parent participation in the preschool enables parents to share in their child's preschool experience, ensures a quality program through the combined efforts and talents of the entire preschool community.
Through cooperation of parents and teachers working closely together, children are provided a stimulating but relaxed environment with lots of opportunities to learn through creative play.
The experience gained in preschool participation also aid parents in acquiring skills necessary to become effective advocates for their child's future educational experiences and opportunities.
