Playhouse Preschool

Playhouse Preschool is a play-based preschool serving children ages 18 months to Pre-K at two locations in Sacramento. The school emphasizes learning through play with low student-to-teacher ratios and a curriculum focused on social interaction and individual child growth.

Philosophy

Children learn through play with emphasis on social interaction and individual growth within a play-based curriculum. Children freely explore and interact with their environments with gentle teacher guidance, following their interests as topics naturally extend (e.g., ocean to tides to moon to astronauts). Teachers provide opportunities for discovery without interpreting for children. Activities emphasize cooperative social interaction, creative personal expression, imaginative play, building, constructing, creative art, and thoughtful investigations. The school creates a culture of respect and gratitude toward the natural world and provides a consistent predictable rhythm during the day for security, structure, and comfort.
