Loving Start Preschool:
by Katy Meyer
An Extension of Bayview United Methodist Church
Offering a half day preschool experience especially for 3 and 4 years olds. Some may start when they are
almost 3 or leave after they turn 5. Parents may choose how many days per week is right for their child
with mornings available M-F and afternoon class on Tuesday and Thursday.
This month I interviewed Lucy Meyer, K4 student at Loving Start Preschool:
Mom: Lucy, what room are you in?
Lucy: Butterfly room!
M: Why is it called butterfly room?
L: Because it has butterflies all over the room!
M: What is new about your school this year?
L: Teddy Bear Picnic!
M: What’s your favorite thing to do at school?
L: Paint!
(Noteworthy: The kids now get to paint on easels in the new Art Studio… check it out downstairs.)
M: What’s your favorite thing to do in the climber room?
L: Ride the bikes!
M: What are your teachers like?
L: KIDS!! (We shall give the teachers the benefit of the doubt and assume Lucy
understood the question as “What do your teachers like?” 🙂 Although the great thing
about LSP teachers is that they are like kids with their sense of wonder, discovery and
playfulness.
M: What does your mom like about your preschool?
L: Mom! What do you like about my preschool?
M: I love the developmental approach to learning with hands on sensory activities, social skills through
play, a positive first leaning experience, the super cool parent-child nights (like Fairy Tale night and
Outerspace night), community field trips (like Outpost, Classic Slice and Milwaukee Fire Department),
affordable tuition (5% discount for BVUMC members), and the kind, empathetic teachers. Oh, and of
course, the delicious cookie dough that LSP kids sell every November 🙂
