I teach Pre‑K 3 at an advanced Christian school, and I truly love working with this age group. We have a curriculum we follow, but I also like to add supplemental activities to make learning more hands‑on and meaningful for the children. In our class, we focus on introducing letters and their sounds, as well as numbers 1-20.
By the time children join us, we hope they’re already comfortable identifying basic shapes and colors. Ideally, they’ll recognize most of their letters by the time we do our quarterly evaluations (yes, we have to do evaluations for 3-year-olds), although this is never a requirement for acceptance. The one thing we do require is that all students be fully potty‑trained and no longer using pull‑ups or diapers during the day.
I’m always happy to answer questions and help families understand what to expect as their little ones join our class!

When raising young children, the topic of money management often takes a back seat to other day-to-
day priorities, such as teaching good manners or helping them learn how to read. However, the habits
kids develop early on can strongly influence how they handle their finances later in life.
As children grow, they’re often exposed to financial situations, whether it’s tagging along during grocery
runs, receiving money for birthdays, or choosing between toys at a store. These everyday moments
naturally spark curiosity about how money works.
Rather than waiting for them to learn about finances later, parents can use this curiosity as a starting
point for meaningful lessons. These can be as simple as explaining where money comes from, like
salaries or allowances, to more structured habits like opening a savings account in the Philippines. With
their parents’ guidance, children can develop a strong foundation for financial responsibility.
Let’s go through some of the first money lessons you can teach your child, from understanding the value
of money to helping them manage their own savings:
