Preschool at Discovery Cottage
Discovery Cottage hosts enrichment programs for children 2 through 5 years old. Our unique program is designed to provide a totally hands-on and kid-centered learning experience that will allow them to use their imagination and discover new friends!
2023 Classes
Classes range from three to four weeks, depending on the month. Children will participate in a wide variety of activities such as: playing games, performing experiments, and creating crafts. We take pride in not being a worksheet program. Kids learn hands on and have fun in the process.
