The shift from preschool to kindergarten is a big milestone for any child. This huge step will be full of excitement, but it is also a time of new beginnings and routines. In the spirit of National Kindergarten Day, we asked three parents to share their secrets to success while their children were in kindergarten:
We know how to keep 2's happy, learning and engaged! Now enrolling in our Early Preschool Program, email abhakta@primrosewichitaeast.com to learn how we can help with your 2 year old explore the world safely!
Why We Chose Primrose: Hello! We are the Stucky family. My name is Corey Stucky and my wife’s name is Catherine. Our children are Jillian, who is now 6 years old and Jensen, who is 3 years old. We are proud to say that both our children are Primrose kids! There are several reasons why we chose to send our children to Primrose School. Having travelled extensively in my previous employment, I was aware of the Primrose brand through friends and family who had experienced Primrose positively in other cities. My wife also knew of Primrose through her friends’ experiences as well. Admittedly, out of all the other choices we had in our area, the reasons we finally selected Primrose for our children boiled down to about 3 things; 1) Primrose was ideally located for our childcare needs, affording us a streamlined route between work and home for which our children could be nurtured. 2) Primrose provided the hours we needed for childcare without a drop-off/pick-up restriction that exceeded our ability to honor or maintain. As working parents, we needed a facility that would be open before we are due for work, and after we are scheduled to leave work. Primrose met this need. 3) Primrose was built as an actual school, not simply a converted building or secondary-use facility. It was founded on solid principles focused on developing children to their actual potential. It included transition classrooms and classes, active work assignments allowing our children the opportunity to grow socially, learn phonological skills, self-awareness, pre-writing skills, pre-math skills, and cognitive/critical thinking skills, and share a pre-meal prayer among others. Primrose provided a continuous assessment program from which to evaluate the learning of our children. It reinforced values within our children that are also important to us; a. Be kind to yourself and others b. Use your listening ears and your looking eyes. c. Keep your hands and your feet to yourself. d. Use your walking feet and inside voices in school. To say that I can share the “Rules of the Roost” with you simply means that Primrose doesn’t just work for our children; it works for us, too! We have since learned and experienced that Primrose truly partners with you for your child’s care, well-being, and learning. And most importantly, Primrose provides a platform from which one can offer parental feedback without the risk of indignation or pretense simply because of differing viewpoints. And, perhaps one of the most important things, it provides daily pictures and notes about curriculum and specific feedback on our children that we can share with grandparents, siblings, and others who might enjoy seeing the kids daily and learning about what they are doing. Simply put; we’re thankful that we found Primrose, and appreciative of what Primrose has given to us in kind. Our children, and our family, are better for it. Sincerely, The Stucky Family Corey, Catherine, Jillian & Jensen
My daughter was a slow-to-warm-up baby and a well-behaved toddler. She never hit or pushed, but instead used her words — like the time she famously told me at age three, “Mommy, I don’t like the choices you’re choicing me.”
Small group "Moon" exploration is soo much fun! We painted moons, made moon dough, read stories and also made our very own 3-D moons! Our children love Science Education!
That's right, we have done it again! Our Primrose Children are growing socially and academically!
Play is a crucial part of the social, emotional and imaginative development of young children, but not all play is created equal!
Our preschoolers had a blast participating in Kansas Day activities! Thank you Primrose teachers for making learning fun!
Join us for Spring Break Week at our West School! School is out and the fun begins!
Now if only they would stop drawing on the walls...
"Our daughter, Emma, has been attending Primrose Wichita East for 2 ½ years. In that time, she has benefited in learning from the most professional and passionate teachers and staff that we have ever seen. We have observed a high quality, balanced learning environment from the day one. The curriculum is impressive coupled with plenty of play time and hands on activities for the kids. Primrose has set our daughter up for a lot of success in the future.”
Pretending is important in child development. Children learn about themselves and the world. Dramatic play experiences are some of the first ways children learn about their likes and dislikes, their interests, and their abilities. They experiment with role playing and work to make sense out of what they’ve observed. Primrose School is all about it!

"Primrose is not just a school, it is a community. In addition to enthusiastic teachers, great facilities, attention to detail, and an impressive curriculum, Primrose goes above and beyond engaging the children in special experiences. Whether it is a cultural parade, Trunk or Treat, educational presentations by organizations throughout Wichita, or the Caring and Giving Food drive, to name a few, the children are learning well beyond the minimum child care development. We are beyond appreciative of everything Primrose has provided for our family."
When Primrose School leaders and educators go out: We love to get out and explore everything that Wichita has to offer! Our team tried out escapology this past weekend. Some of us escaped and some of us didn't, but that is ok.....we had fun doing it!

Thank you Primrose Parents for believing in our mission and vision. It truly takes a village to raise children and we are honored to be a part of your village. We will continue to keep working hard for you. We would also like to thank our educators for bringing our Balanced Learning Philosophy to life! As owners, we feel blessed to have such a fantastic team of nurturing teachers who prepare our children for kindergarten and life! We would like to recognize our leadership team, curriculum coach and chef. They help connect all the little dots to help ensure smooth daily operations. Rajesh and I couldn’t have asked for a better team to work side by side with. At Primrose Schools our dream is to always inspire a love of learning to children in our community. With the help of a strong external and internal support, Raj and I feel confident that our dreams are coming true! Rajesh & Anjana Owners
Like many families, you are having to make a decision on School for your 3 year old. What to do? Send him/her to a Big Elementary School (with an early childhood education) or to a smaller Early Childhood School that focuses on Early Childhood Education. Our best recommendation is visit Big Schools and Early Childhood Schools to see which one you think will give your child the best foundation. Here are some great questions to ask and think about.
