At Celebree School of Bristow, we believe the best kind of learning starts with curiosity and a dash of joy. In our preschool in Bristow, VA, children don’t just memorize facts. They explore, experiment, and grow in ways that set them up for lifelong success.
Our program is designed to nurture the whole child—academically, socially, and emotionally—so they have the confidence, skills, and love for learning that will carry them far beyond the preschool years.
Building a Love for Learning
Children are naturally curious, and our classrooms are designed to encourage that curiosity at every turn. We incorporate literacy, math, science, and the arts into engaging, hands-on activities that connect learning to the real world.
Think of it this way: letter recognition might happen while writing a grocery list in dramatic play, math concepts show up in a block-building challenge, and early science takes root when children plant seeds and track their growth. Every lesson is playful, purposeful, and full of opportunities for discovery.
Social and Emotional Development
While academics matter, preschool is also where children learn how to be part of a community. Here, they practice sharing, taking turns, resolving conflicts, and listening to different perspectives.
We also help them navigate the big emotions that come with growing up. Learning to manage frustration, express feelings appropriately, and empathize with friends gives children the tools to build strong relationships now and in the future. Our supportive environment ensures that every child feels seen, heard, and valued.
Learning Through Play—On Purpose
At our preschool, play is the engine that drives learning. Far from being “just fun,” play is how children develop critical thinking, problem-solving, and creativity.
- Dramatic play sparks imagination and storytelling.
- Outdoor games build coordination, cooperation, and resilience.
- Art activities encourage self-expression and fine motor skills.
Our teachers carefully plan these experiences so they’re not only enjoyable but also tied to developmental goals. The result? Children are learning more than they realize, and having a great time doing it.
Preparing for Kindergarten (and Loving the Idea of It)
Kindergarten readiness is about much more than knowing letters and numbers. It’s about being able to follow directions, work independently, adapt to new situations, and approach challenges with confidence.
By the time our preschoolers move on, they’re equipped with academic knowledge, social skills, and a growth mindset that helps them embrace new learning experiences. Families often tell us their children make a seamless—and happy—transition into elementary school.
Our Partnership With Families
We see parents as partners in their child’s education. That’s why we maintain open, ongoing communication through daily updates, progress reports, and regular conversations.
We share not just what your child is learning, but also how they’re growing socially and emotionally. This collaboration ensures consistency between home and school, which helps children thrive.
A Safe, Engaging Environment
Every child learns best in a space where they feel secure and supported. Our classrooms are thoughtfully arranged to encourage exploration while maintaining clear boundaries. We follow strict safety measures and provide a warm, welcoming atmosphere where children can focus on learning and building friendships.
