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
