Preschool is an educational setting designed for young children, typically ages 3 to 5, to prepare them for the transition to primary school. It focuses on social, emotional, and cognitive development through play-based learning and structured activities. Children engage in various experiences that promote language skills, creativity, and problem-solving. In preschool, children learn to interact with peers and develop essential skills such as sharing and cooperation. Programs often include a mix of guided activities and free play, allowing children to explore their interests in a nurturing environment. This foundational stage is crucial for lifelong learning and development.
