At MomTrusted, we have a lot of favorites when it comes to preschools. We devote our time to spreading word of outstanding programs and helping match parents with child care and education options. One of the preschool programs at the top of our list is CHALK Preschool, available at several locations in the Chicago and Los Angeles areas. Here’s why we love them:
CHALK’s belief in the learning process
At CHALK Preschool, staff strives to appeal to all parts of learning in an effort to provide a well-rounded education and preparation for kindergarten. CHALK supports each child’s emotional, physical, social and cognitive growth through carefully chosen lesson plans. A warm and welcoming environment is what staff members of CHALK work to provide for every preschooler in the program. They stress hands-on activities, including, but not limited to, a wide variety of songs, games and crafts.
CHALK prepares children for the leap into school
Teaching is the main goal at CHALK Preschool, and each center focuses on preparing its students for kindergarten, prepping them for a long road of academic success. While the lessons focus on math, science and literacy, a CHALK education reaches beyond the traditional sense. The preschools also work to help young ones perfect their motor skills and help children acquire social skills.
CHALK offers an online program
CHALK Preschool gets a ton of bonus points for spreading knowledge around the world by offering an online preschool option. Parents can login whether or not their child is already enrolled in preschool. The lessons, which are focused around key points like literacy, math, science and more, can be used as bonus learning material for those already in a tradition preschool, or a unique, digital preschool option for those who don’t go to preschool every day. The online version is even free for parents to enroll their children in and use.
CHALK Preschool has a total of five locations spread between Chicago and New York. The first went up in 2005 and popular demand for the program resulted in more and more preschools. Children between the ages of two and five are welcome and the preschool accepts applications year-round, so don’t wait until next year to enroll. Schedule a tour and see if it’s a good fit for your child. Click here to find the closest Chalk Preschool to you.

I’ll have to check this out. My preschooler is learning to read for free online at Sight and Sound Reading (http://www.sightandsoundreading.com) They have a great program too.
How do I gain access to this?
Hi there I am grade K teacher and like to learn more!
I am working with my 4 yr old grandson, every other week through the year. I am hoping to be able to teach him the necessary things he will need to know for Kindergarten coming 9/2016. I am glad I found this site and hope to be working with this with him this fall! Thank-you
Just an update on this, it is no longer free. They want $11.95 a month
I just registered for this thing. I’m already having issues. On the site it says that I can add my childs name & age…well I can’t. I tried to find a way to contact the people of this site & there is no contact info. Will someone please contact me asap. I would hate to cancel & report to BBB. Please help me. My child & I are very excited to get started.
