Pre-K Focus

  • At C&M, we believe that learning should be an enjoyable experience for every child. That's why we've designed our program to make sure that our students have fun while they learn. Our play-based curriculum is tailored to meet each child's individual needs and interests, ensuring that they're always engaged and excited about the learning process. We also place a strong emphasis on social and emotional development, providing a safe and nurturing environment where every child can thrive. By choosing C&M, you're giving your child the opportunity to gain important knowledge and skills while doing activities they love. Join us today and see the difference that our approach can make!

  • Our classrooms operate on a carefully crafted schedule that ensures every child gets an equal opportunity to utilize our gym space. The day usually starts between 9-9:30am, followed by lunch at 11:30am, and a nap time from 12-2pm. This routine ensures that the children have ample time to play, learn, and rest, thereby promoting their development.

  • Our Pre-K curriculum is designed for children between the ages of 3.5 and 5 years old, which is typically the preschool age. At this stage, children's development varies and is primarily motivated by their identity.

    Around the age of four, children begin to realize the power of their words and may use them to get what they want. They also become more competitive and may have difficulty distinguishing between reality and fantasy. This age group is also prone to intense emotions, and children may sometimes lash out physically by hitting, spitting, or kicking. It's important to speak with them after they have calmed down from these strong emotions.

What our parents are saying!

  • "C&M is truly the best! We unfortunately had a not so great expierence at another center our son attended. Abby took the time to personally take us on a tour of C&M. Our son started and the first few weeks for him were a transition. The teachers Ms. Mercedes and Ms. Danielle went above and beyond to help us during the transition and making our son feel welcomed. He is now excited to come to school. It is such a relief to drop your child off knowing they are excited and in the best hands possible. We are beyond thankful to be apart of C&M Play Studio!"

  • "I am so incredibly thankful for Ms. Terrian in Pre-K Orange. My youngest started Kindergarten a couple of months ago and thanks to Terrian, I didn’t worry about her being ready at all. Terrian creates fun and meaningful lessons that prepare the kids for elementary school fully. The kids feel safe with her, they trust her, and they love her. From a parent perspective, there is nothing better than knowing your child is happy and safe with their teacher. So incredibly thankful my daughter had her for a year+!"
