Welcome to Bethany Lutheran Preschool

Play-Based Bainbridge Island Preschool

Bethany Lutheran Preschool on Bainbridge Island offers preschool programs for children 2½ to 5 years old. Our goal is to foster a life-long love of learning while demonstrating Christian values. We offer a learning environment that allows preschoolers to develop self-confidence, independence, and social skills while giving them opportunities to grow physically, emotionally, and spiritually.

We believe in what research says:
Play is critical to learning and is vital to future academic success.

At Bethany Lutheran Preschool on Bainbridge Island we use a play-based curriculum. Through play, children will develop in the areas of:

• Social skills
• Problem-solving
• Fine and gross motor skills
• Confidence and independence
• Emergent literacy and mathematic skills

Our approach uses an interactive thematic curriculum that nurtures the whole child. Our focus is on process rather than product and learning by hands-on experience. We offer a wide variety of opportunities that ultimately prepare students for kindergarten.

Daily activities include:

• Free choice
• Circle time
• Outdoor play
• Arts and crafts
• STEM
• Storytime
