The Arlington Heights Park District preschool program provides age-appropriate curriculum to develop a child’s love of learning. Our play-based curriculum is provided in a safe, nurturing environment which allows the children opportunities to grow socially, emotionally, intellectually and physically. Children participate in a variety of activities everyday including art, music, movement, dramatic play, math, science, block play, story time and group discussions. With the guidance of the area school districts, we strive to prepare children for kindergarten. Our program is designed to give your child the tools and experiences they need to assure a positive transition from preschool to kindergarten.



Preschool

Water Babies. 6-24 months with one parent in water with baby. 30 min. Other adults are welcome to watch class from side of pool. Start exposing your baby to a body of water bigger than the kitchen sink now! This will help them better adjust to swimming lessons in a few years. We use songs and games to relax your baby and hopefully squeeze out a smile. We introduce holding positions so you are comfortable holding your baby in water. This class is in our warm water pool.



Water Babies

Water Toddlers. 2-4 yrs with one parent in water with child. 30 min. We add on to our Water Babies class format by introducing skills that will take place in our Junior Swim School classes. For the last 4 minutes the instructor typically plays a game or we enjoy the kiddie slide and sprays. If your 3 or 4-year-old is comfortable/happy in a pool, consider signing them up for Junior Swim School which is with no parent in water to give them that extra push of independence in water.

On the way back after meeting their aunt today, I brought my daughters here. It's a great park, and the girls enjoyed themselves. We adore it.

I appreciate that they offer a safety program and a karate club for kids. It teaches your kids respect and confidence-building qualities while also equipping them with the knowledge and abilities they need to defend themselves against strangers. fantastic program

Water is off for the year, but the park is still enjoyable for children.
