Preschool Visit

I took E and L to a preschool yesterday to visit as a potential place for L to attend in the fall.  I have no comparison as to whether this is a good or bad preschool, but after yesterday I'm willing to bet it is one of the really really good ones!  L loved it, period.  She ran around to all the different stations in the gigantic room while I talked to the head lady, played with the other children, played outside on the playground equipment and with the group activity going on, and even got to do the art project the children were working on.  There were about 15-20 kids in there, and apparently they usually get divided up into age groups to do things (3-4 and 4-5).  It was great - even E had a good time with a wheelbarrow full of baby dolls.  :)  L threw a gigantic temper tantrum when we went to leave, telling me "I stay here, you come back later!"

I think L is ready to be in a place with other kids on a regular basis beyond library storytime.  She LOVED being at the preschool.  I guess the decisions my husband and I have to make now are A) when to start her (August or January), and B) half day for a few times a week, or full day.  Decisions decisions!  I guess we'll have to go check out a few other preschools now to compare.
