Early Childhood Education at the Itasca Park District

At the Itasca Park District, children ages 2 to 5 are invited to learn, play, and explore in a safe, supportive, and engaging environment. Our Early Childhood Education Program features core offerings like Tiny Tikes Preschool and Junior Kindergarten, along with enrichment classes and our Lunch & Learn option that extends your child’s day with hands-on learning, perfect for parents looking for uninterrupted time to work or relax. We also offer a variety of general early childhood classes focused on creativity, confidence, and connection.
