Above all else, a preschooler is a learner whose amazing powers of reasoning and discrimination are awakened through a world of play and imagination. Through home relationships, the preschooler learns about love, trust, comfort and security; and through friends, learns to place him or herself amongst a world of peers.

The growth phase between five and eight years of age, is a time when parental training and encouragement are major players in a child's developing world. These early school years awaken within a child a sense of fearful adventure in an ever-expanding world outside the confines of mom and dad. It is a time when his intellect develops sufficiently to allow purposeful interaction with adults and other children. As that interaction begins, he begins to process experiences and sensations from his deepening relationships that direct the way he interprets life. As his world unfolds, new and broader expectations are realized. Now he is confronted with role functions, norms, and expected standards of conduct which sometimes conflict with each other as well as with his own self-centered perceptions.
