Preschool

The Learning Center offers an enriching preschool program at the Boys & Girls Club of Meriden for children ages 3-5 that promotes positive relationships among all children and adults.

Great futures start with a solid foundation in learning. Let your child’s education begin at Boys & Girls Club of Meriden's Learning Center. The preschool program at the Learning Center is whole child based where preschoolers learn and grow through educational programs used in the Meriden Public Schools to teach phonemic awareness, literacy, and mathematical skills in addition to play-based learning through art, music & movement, dramatic play, and age-appropriate STEAM programs.
