Primrose School of Dallas at Kessler Park

When it comes to developing good character, Primrose students have 12 special helpers. Through songs, stories, activities and more, teachers use the Primrose Friends to help children learn about positive character traits like generosity ❤️, courage 🦁 and cooperation 🤝.

Which Friend is your child most like?

The start of a new school year is always exciting, but little ones sometimes feel nervous about making the transition whether that be the prospect of a new classroom, new teachers or new friends. Try these tips to help build your child's confidence for the first day of school and beyond:​
​
👋 Wave Goodbye to Summer: Enjoy an end-of-summer picnic and a first day back at school breakfast with your family.​
​
🙂 Keep it Positive: Your attitude makes a huge difference when it comes to building excitement about the school year. Talk to your child about all the fun they'll have and how they'll get to see their school friends soon. ​
​
🍎 Practice Healthy Habits: Schedules tend to get off track in the summer, so it's important to reestablish your child's normal sleeping and eating schedules. The transition will be easier for both of you when your little one is well-rested and feeling good. ​
​
🗓️ Make a Paper Chain: Starting in the final days of summer, create a paper chain with every "link" representing one day. Have your child draw what happened that day on each link. When the first month of school is over, you'll have a fun memory craft to decorate with. ​
​
📚 Read Together: Reading books about heading back to school is a fun way to get your child excited while helping strengthen their early literacy skills. ​
​
Share these tips with a friend who is looking for "back-to-school" advice for their 0-5-year-old!

Starting a new school year can be full of adorable insights from children! We'd love to hear about the funny, cute and sometimes ridiculous things your child has said about school.

SILLY SOCK DAY!!! 🧦

Early preschool put their Thumbs up! Our friends challenged their balance skills by positioning the beanbag on various body parts as they moved around. They begin with the easy task of using the backs of the hand or open palms, and gradually progress to more challenging positions.

Happy third birthday to our sweet Caleb!! We love you! 🥰🎂

Spring Fling has come to an end, and this year the Primrose community has raised more than $510,000 as children learned about the joy of giving without expectation. 🌸🎉​

It’s Crazy Hair Day!!

During Enrichment Art, our friends experimented with dropping watercolor onto a container of ice and observed how they slip, slide and merge to create new colors. Ms. Kim added a pinch of salt to the ice to see the fascinating effects.

The future is looking bright! 🌟 Primrose graduates have had an amazing journey that has prepared them so well for their next big adventure - kindergarten! Thank you, Primrose parents, for sharing these adorable throwback photos with us and taking us down memory lane. Here's to many more milestones! 🎉

Sweet Snacks!

We explored Indian foods with our friends by reading a book and smelling spices. The teachers encourage the friends to describe the aromas and which one they want to try.

Love, acceptance, tolerance and hope: we celebrate these values every day by welcoming families and providing a safe, nurturing environment for children to grow, learn and be uniquely themselves. Belongingness is part of our Balanced Learning® curriculum and is at the heart of the joyful experiences our Primrose teachers bring to life every day for children. 🫶🌟🎉
