Welcome to Preschool
The City of Eagan Parks & Recreation
Department welcomes you and your
preschooler to a wide selection of
quality preschool programs. Eagan
Parks & Recreation preschool
program’s focus is on the social
development of children ages two
through five years old. Participants
will benefit by developing their social
skills through play, art, projects,
stories, songs, games, and outside play.
Participants will also have the opportunity to develop their independence, self-help
and sharing skills and learn to follow directions.
Teachers are experienced instructors
committed to offering your preschooler
a positive experience and providing
support for your child’s first school
years. The program has been serving
the community since 1978 and continues
to provide quality programs and new
opportunities for all participants. Each
year new classes begin in January, March,
June and September.
Eagan Parks & Recreation uses the following guide lines to define who is a
preschooler for participation in our programs:
• Children who are the appropriate age on or before the first day of class.
• Children who are completely toilet trained and independent in the bathroom.
• Children are required to wear underwear; pull-up type diapers are not allowed.
• Toilet training is not required for children registered in parent/child classes.
• Bright Beginnings and Let’s Play! Music Together classes are for children who
are the age stated in the class and accompanied by an adult. Additional siblings
are welcome, when age appropriate and additional fees paid as listed in the
program.
• Just for 5’s (and some 4’s, too!) class is for children who are the appropriate age
to enter kindergarten in the Fall of 2016.
Please note:
Due to the popularity of our preschool
program, classes tend to fill up quickly.
Wait lists will be maintained in a manner
that accommodates participants new to
the program.
Participants enrolled in more than
one preschool class per session may
experience programming duplication
between classes.

advance to a fast-paced, competitive
game for experienced players.
