The ever-popular, after-school Lunch Bunch opportunity allows children to stay until 1:00 or 2:00 to eat lunch with friends and continue learning classroom concepts while participating in children-directed activities. A Thursday option from 9:10 to 11:40 is Brunch Bunch for an extra morning of learning and fun to be added to the preschool week. Licensed by the Ohio Department of Job & Family Services, Main Street Preschool opened in 2005.

Science, technology, engineering and math can be learned at the very young age of preschool. The Pre-K teacher used marshmallows and toothpicks to encourage each child to create a structure. Each showed imagination and persistence. STEM learning is knowledge for the future. According to U.S. Department of Education website.
In an ever-changing, increasingly complex world, it’s more important than ever that our nation’s youth are prepared to bring knowledge and skills to solve problems, make sense of information, and know how to gather and evaluate evidence to make decisions. These are the kinds of skills that students develop in science, technology, engineering and math—disciplines collectively known as STEM.
As of February 10th, 2020 registration for all classes is closed.
Please call Main Street Preschool to be waitlisted.

The faculty at Main Street Preschool in downtown Tipp City believes that art enhances the lives of children. Through art, children expand their decision-making, inventiveness, cultural awareness, and academic performance. As student-artists, they learn self-control and progressive thinking that will benefit them well for life. The preschool strives to create a more progressive learning environment going forward into the 21st century.
We are excited to introduce a unique addition to Main Street Preschool this year. The Enrichment Room is a new learning center where all of the children have opportunities to work individually or in very small groups with Suzy Wyant, the Enrichment teacher. Mrs. Wyant is beginning her ninth year at Main Street Preschool, having worked previously as a classroom teaching assistant.
In the Enrichment Room, children fine-tune their emerging skills with hands-on materials that allow for exploration and discovery. Mrs. Wyant works closely with each teacher so that her activities support and extend the learning that is taking place in the classrooms. Much of the learning in the Enrichment Room this fall has focused on activities that help children build hand strength and fine motor skills–two areas that are crucial for developing the strength and coordination needed for handwriting.
The public is invited to come to Tipp City United Methodist Church Great Hall on Wednesday, April 26, to view works of the student-artists. The exhibit is open from 5 pm until 7 pm. During the exhibit a spaghetti & meatball meal, to include chicken nuggets, salad and dessert too, will be served between 5-6:30 p.m. Carryout is available. Family $15 or single $5. Raffle packages filled with gift cards and specialty items will be on display to view and purchase tickets during the dinner also. Proceeds will fund The Miracle on Main Street project that happens this summer at the preschool. The congregation and preschool families will lend many hands to create a more progressive learning environment going forward into the 21st century.

Tipp City Fire Department brought a fire truck for the children to see. During the next weeks the children had a chance to dress up like firefighters and act out some of the situations they learned about. This is an example of multisensory learning which is incorporated in Main Street Preschool’s curriculum.
Children who stay for the after-school optional program enjoyed the beautiful autumn afternoon outside. Leaves were all around and they decided to rake them into a pile so they could play in it. They realized that after working together to make the pile there was plenty of time to play together. Lunch Bunch offers children opportunities to talk about and agree on activities they would like to do together.
