Not being able to get a place at the daycare we sent our firstborn to was actually a blessing in disguise. My son loves going to Little Sprouts and misses Miss Polly and his friends at Little Sprouts on his days off. I believe to him it feels like family more than preschool. It certainly does to me! The atmosphere is cozy, loving, creative, free, and safe like a home. There is no pushing cognitive skills, yet they do learn a lot, such as colors, numbers, and letters, apart from the (much more important) social skills. Little Sprouts is the best kept secret in Sacramento!
