Buffalo Grove Toddler Care & Preschool
Early Childhood Program
JCYS Buffalo Grove toddler and preschool programming (age 15 months – 5 years) uses a play-based approach that provides children plenty of opportunities to explore their world and develop a love of learning. Children build academic and social skills for stories, singing, language development, science, cooking, and games during group times. Individualized learning centers dedicated to puzzles, crafts, and other activities provide opportunities to practice fine motor skills such as writing and cutting.
