Summer Adventure Program
Summer is a wonderful time for children of all ages, when life feels a little more relaxed and rules are a tiny bit easier to abide. Learning continues at Little Friends Preschool with adventures indoors and outside, excitement in ways that new and different from the regular school year. Our philosophy of learning through play permeates the five weeks of the Summer Adventure Program.

About Our Summer Adventure Program
Little Friends Preschool Summer Adventure Program is fun-filled, action-packed days in a familiar setting with comfortable procedures and customary actions, but more informal, less structured, and deliberately planned for FUN. Each week has a theme, such as
- "Where in the Great Outdoors Can You Find..."
- "Blasting Into Space"
- “Celebrating the Fourth of July”
While there is a sense of summertime excitement and adventure, we include learning, caring for others, and respect for each other in the lessons, making the weeks for the children very special.
