Question: How old does my child have to be to attend Smartypants ?
Answer: Smarty Pants Preschool & Kindergarten is Kuna's very first state-licensed private school. We are held to a different standard than those licensed as a daycare. Because of this, the students need to be 4 years old.
The State of Idaho considers any facility with students under the age of 4, a daycare program.
Question: What will my child's day at school be like?
Answer: Our day starts with group activities and socializing. During this time, the students can choose which CENTER they might like to play in. We then move on to group activities: singing, dancing & calendar.
Then we transition to our table work, which includes developing their small motor skills with: coloring, writing, painting, cutting, gluing, drawing etc.
The children will learn to correctly write their names on their daily papers. Each student is encouraged to do their individual best . This helps build their confidence and a strong foundation for their educational career.
Each week / month the students will be introduced to a different color, number, letter, shape and letter, as well as learning about the calendar. All of this is accomplished in a fun, loving environment that fosters learning.
