Mission Statement

Rainbow Connection is a Christian Center committed to sharing the gospel of Jesus Christ with its children in age-appropriate ways.  With pre-school age children Bible truths are taught through experiences and relationships more than through words.  Basic Christian principles are taught by word and example - to love one another, be kind to each other, comfort those who are sad and to share with each other.  Bible stories and times of prayer are also shared with the children.

Center Philosophy

Our program is designed to develop basic concepts, attitudes and skills as well as to expand each child's propensity to create.  However, at all times the development of the child's self-esteem, confidence and moral character is of paramount importance.  To offer children a solid foundation we will be focusing on these essential skills:

Socialization Language development
Hand-eye coordination Small muscle control
Manual dexterity Following directions
Listening and recall Color awareness
Shape and numeral recognition Concepts
Safety Appreciation of nature
Music exploration Gross motor skills
