Do you have a park district that offers classes? Or the Y?

I agree that pre-school is not always needed. I like park and Y classes because it gives kids a lot of the things pre-school does. Social opportunities, learning to take direction from teacher, sports, skills, etc.

But because the classes only last around 6 weeks, then you get to change to something new, I think it's a good choice for the child who masters things easily then wants to move on.
