Did you go to Preschool?

[Espy 4,701]

I did and the only things I remember was a Dr. Seuss scavenger hunt we did around the school one day and some weird cup stacking thing we had to do in the gym/auditorium.

And now that I wrote "gym", I remember the gym coach at the school twisted a frying pan for my sister. I don't know where that thing is anymore

I went to preschool for about a year, I think. Don't really remember much though. :/

I did. The only thing I remember about it is my teachers name…..

I did... And I just learned yesterday that it was actually a private Christian preschool... o.O I guess public preschool wasn't a thing back then... Still weird to think that I ever went to a private Christian school of any kind. Ew.

WHAT. I had completely forgotten about this. Yikes. SO MUCH YIKES.  Thank goodness I wasn't effectively indoctrinated.

I don't remember anything Christian about it. All I remember about preschool was how the teacher tried to make me eat gross foods like spinach and chicken pot pie. How disgusting they were to me back then has kept me away from them ever since.

I remember bits and pieces but I went i remember the pop bottle tornados and putting shaving cream all over a table and playing in it.

I never attended preschool. I actually went straight to Kindergarten when I was 5. I've always wondered what preschool was about when I was a kid though.

I went to preschool I didn't like this place.

I did, I don't remember much from preschool except where it is, the play equipment and one time we saw a snail with a really cool shiny rainbow shell 

That was pretty big for the time, there wasn't a lot going on in our lives hahaha

I think so, and from what my parents told me, I would constantly come back violently sick. 💀

No, I did not go to pre-hell. Honestly, what’s the point? School itself is pointless since they can’t come up with a format that works to educate rather than traumatize, intimidate and render well-adjusted kids into a psychological mess while they’re still young and impressionable. Pre-school and kindergarten is nonsense and does nothing to develop young minds in any practical way. It’s just another way to torture kids pointlessly.

I did. I can't really remember it tho. I can remember Kindergarten but not pre-school.

Yes, I did. It was some kind of special needs school, I believe, since my mom was worried my sister and I would have to deal with developmental issues since we were born premature. She said I didn't have any issues, at least in school, but my sister has a diagnosed disability and has received some form of accommodations all throughout her schooling.

I loved preschool and it's amazing how many memories I still have of it. I remember my teachers' names and what my classmates looked like. I remember some of the activities I did and how I was a little msichevious with them sometimes. It was such a fun place and such a fun preschool! I'm just sad it shut down after I left it since I guess it didn't have anymore funding to stay open since it was a smaller school.

Preschool is generally for kids below kindergarten age.  When I grew up it was also called nursery school, and the age range was between 3 and 5 years old.

o_o huh.

I... don't think... we have that in my country? Maybe in the private sector... but I only went to kindergarten. I would be over my sister's mum's apartment otherwise when my parents were busy, there's no state program for preschools and because of bigger families I imagine there's little need for kids to be watched over in one as you'll usually have backup relatives to help.
