We suggest dressing your children in clothes they can comfortably play in. Remember that children who are going through potty training, and even those who have mastered the bathroom, do best with clothing they can quickly pull down. While buttons and suspenders are cute, they are difficult for young children to undo when they realize they are in a hurry! Also keep in mind that we encourage children to explore, and things do get messy on occasion. We highly recommend clothing that is as washable as the kids! They will be painting, coloring, eating, and playing on the playground. While we do our best to keep the kids in smocks for art projects and out of really big messes, please understand that part of early children learning means they will sometimes \u201cwear\u201d their lessons.<\/p><\/div><\/div><div class=\"accordion_section\"><div class=\"accordion_title\"><i class=\"accordion_icon\"><\/i><span>Potty Training<\/span><\/div><div class=\"accordion_content\" style=\"display: none;\"><p>Potty training is a very important part of the life of your 2-year old. Our teachers work in connection with our parents to potty train each child.<\/p><p>For children who are potty training, we request at least four full changes of clothing, including socks, labeled with first and last name. All children will be supervised and offered assistance as needed. For health and safety reasons, all soiled clothes will be placed in a sealed plastic bag and sent home with the child at the end of the day. Staff members will not rinse or wash items.<\/p><\/div><\/div>            <\/div>\n        <\/div>\n        \t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-084b20b e-flex e-con-boxed e-con e-parent\" data-id=\"084b20b\" data-element_type=\"container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"e-con-inner\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-8bbf8c7 elementor-widget elementor-widget-cws_callout\" data-id=\"8bbf8c7\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"cws_callout.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"ce clearfix\"><div class=\"cws_callout\"><div class=\"content_section\"><div class=\"callout_title\"><div class=\"bees bees-end\"><span><\/span><\/div>Ready to Enroll?<\/div><div class=\"separate\"><\/div><div class=\"callout_text\"><div><div><div><div><div><div><p>Schedule a tour, come meet our teachers and see if First Steps Preschool is right for your family today!<\/p><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><div class=\"button_section\"><a href=\"https:\/\/kidzonelearningexpress.com\/FShere\/contact-2\" class=\"cws_button xlarge\" target=\"_blank\">Schedule a Tour Now<div class=\"button-shadow\"><\/div><\/a><\/div><\/div><\/div>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Beautiful Butterflies are ready to leave their sippy cups at home, and drink from regular cups, with occasional spills.
