[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Dolly Madison Preschool. I would classify Lewinsville as more of a daycare center.[/quote] They have a full Montessori curriculum starting age 2. Most 3 year olds learn letter, Numbers and Phonics. Most 4 yr olds are reading. Daycares do not do those things. It is daycare for the infants. They are a 12-month full-day program, with lots of free play in the afternoons, which also might be what PP is thinking about. The 12-month aspect is a feature for many families. [/quote] Most daycares follow a curriculum, like the Creative Curriculum. Most preschools and daycares are not teaching 4 year olds to read. Frankly, many kids are not ready to read at that age and there isn't much advantage to pushing it, and some potential disadvantages. https://www.boredteachers.com/post/learning-to-read-too-early-might-be-counterproductive[/quote]
