Preschools in Chicago

I too have a three year old daughter and have encountered the same problem. My husband and I considered a Lutheran school near us, but the cost was too high given what they seemed to be offering. What I have opted to do is place her in several activities through the park district and Wright College. She did a "Skills for Reading Readiness" in the spring which ranges from age 2 to 5. I intend to put her in again this fall. I am also adding on a math and possibly science class. She knows most of the stuff, but it is great for socializing, gets her ready for the transition to structured schooling next year, and they always end with an arts and craft project that she enjoys. All of the above programs are only one day for only an hour a week, but it's something and not too overwhelming.

FYI, registration for the Chicago Park District begins August 14th. If you choose this route, take it from a mom who missed out on everything for the summer, be ready to register on August 14th. They will be filled shortly thereafter.

Good luck with everything.

Hi P.,

I am sad to hear that you are depressed, time will heal all wounds. Dont forget that your son can feel your depression and he also will start feeling that way. I have a story to tell you, 17 years ago I meet the love of my life we were together for about one year when we found out we were going to have a baby, both of us were so happy everything seemed like it was going great, we were together through my 9 months of pregnacy and looking forward to the due date of our daughter on May 21st 1991 but instead of our daughter being born on that day there was a knock on my door early that morning, they found him dead on the tracks, he had shot himself in the heart that morning, I had my daughter the following day. I was torn apart for years, I am now married again and I have a wonderful husband and a new son..Time is the only thing that will feel your wounds even though I met the love of my life the death of my daughters father stabbed me hard for a while, now he is just a great memory in my heart and I make sure that my daughter and I still visit him where he lay and I keep his memory alive in her heart...hang in there we all go through rough roads some rougher than others but we are tuff and fight through life with iron fists...

For the school, near my work there is a school called St richards they accept 3-4 year olds and is also and all day program, the school is located on 50th in Kilbourn..GOOD LUCK.
AND HANG IN THERE YOU WILL BE JUST FINE...
