You know, we're so frustrated by lack of play-based preschools here that moving to NZ for the next couple of years is starting to sound more and more appealing.

Perhaps a little extreme. I don't envy the preschools but there does seem to be more choice after preschool. I have seem a couple of ads for getting ready for school preschools but they are definately a very small minority. It is not helpful when your 3 year old has pretty much all the readiness skills the schools ask for - just adds a couple more years of boredom.
