[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I am the C&C poster and in my mind there is a difference between pre-school and daycare where pre-school is more focused on academics. Maybe we are all talking about the same thing but coming from different points of view .[/quote] Agreed. I think the use of the term preschool has gotten inflated to appease parents who think they're doing more for their kids if they're in "preschool" at 2 y/o versus childcare/daycare. If it's play-based and developmentally appropriate, it's childcare because a two year old isn't ready for school. I can't imagine how you could get two year olds to sit in chairs and learn lessons anyways, but you SHOULDN'T even if you could. This article is a little hysterical, but I agree with the premise: http://www.msn.com/en-us/lifestyle/voices/stop-calling-day-care-school/ar-AAosTVk[/quote]
