About this preschool

A Kid's Kingdom Preschool is affiliated with Castro Valley First Baptist Church and offers theme-based, developmentally-appropriate curricula that integrate spiritual, emotional, social, physical, academic, and moral development. The school operates from mid-August through May with morning classes for 3-year-olds (Tuesday/Thursday) and 4-year-olds/Pre-Kindergarten (Monday/Wednesday/Friday).

Philosophy
The goal is to personally expose each child and family to the love of Christ and make them aware that each one is uniquely created by God. Through a carefully planned atmosphere and theme-based, developmentally-appropriate curriculum, children are encouraged in an individualized manner to gain new knowledge and understanding at a pace that is right for them. By providing seemingly 'play' experiences, each child will discover, explore, and master new ideas and skills. Teachers create an environment where children feel relaxed and comfortable enough to try out new activities with confidence.
