Kid’s Place at Grace
A place where your child can grow in knowledge, creativity, and love of God!
Kid’s Place at Grace (KPG) sees each child as a unique individual, created by God. We provide a warm, nurturing, fun, and positive environment that is designed to promote the development of the whole child, including social, physical, emotional, spiritual, and intellectual growth. Our curriculum encourages each child’s creativity, curiosity, and positive self-esteem through age-appropriate, hands-on activities.
The staff at Kid’s Place at Grace must pass rigorous screening, education, and experience qualifications to meet or exceed those required by the state of Kansas and Grace UMC. Each teacher participates annually in continuing education opportunities to broaden and increase skills to make a positive contribution to the education of your child.
KPG offers many different Preschool and KDO class options, starting at 18 months up to age 5. All classes run 8:45 am – 2:15 pm. Each class has a dedicated Circle Time, Center-Directed Activity Time, Snack Time, Recess, and Lunch.
KPG does not charge an additional snack fee. KPG families sign up to bring snack for their child’s class on a rotating basis. We are a peanut-free facility for both snack and lunch. Each child is responsible for bringing their own lunch.
For more information, please contact Jennifer Mills, Kid’s Place at Grace Director, at (913) 201-9045 or [email protected].
