Brooklyn Preschool of Science is where the wild wonder of a zoo, the hands-on excitement of a museum, and the playful warmth of a preschool combine into an unforgettable learning adventure. Imagine your child walking into a classroom alive with blue tongue skinks, bearded dragons, fish tanks, and even Madagascar roaches—each day sparking curiosity with living creatures just outside their circle of everyday friends. At BPOS, science isn’t just a subject; it’s part of the air kids breathe and the world they get to touch, examine, and explore.
Every corner is a discovery zone: at one table, budding scientists might observe how worms wiggle through soil, while others use magnifying glasses to study butterfly wings or sort a kaleidoscope of leaves. The experience doesn’t stop with real animals—just like the best museum exhibits, BPOS classrooms are packed with fossils, plant walls, and hands-on science kits, turning big questions about the world into daily adventures. Whether making simple machines from blocks or investigating backyard bugs, each lesson is designed to inspire awe and lasting curiosity.
What truly sets Brooklyn Preschool of Science apart is the spirit of joyful learning that flows through everything they do, blending the social connections of preschool with the curiosity-driven explorations of the best museums and zoos. Children are encouraged to ask “Why?” and “How?” and then actually find the answers, with caring teachers as their guides. By turning science into a tactile, creative experience, BPOS gives every child the chance to become a fearless explorer—and leaves them excited to come back each day for more discoveries.
The Brooklyn Preschool of Science is a place where biodiversity comes alive for young learners every day. From the lush greenery of living walls to the tranquil presence of fish tanks, the school’s environment is carefully designed to spark curiosity about life’s rich variety. At BPoS, children have encounters with fascinating animals—like Madagascar hissing roaches and gentle bunnies—offering hands-on experiences that lay the foundation for understanding ecosystems, life cycles, and the interdependence of living things. We ignite a sense of wonder and nurture critical thinking, creativity, and environmental awareness in even the youngest students.
The Brooklyn Preschool of Science, which is also deeply committed to biodiversity, also deeply supports social-emotional learning. Interacting with animals provides meaningful lessons in empathy, responsibility, and respect for all living beings. Caring for classroom creatures helps children build social skills, learn to recognize and manage emotions, and develop a sense of belonging and stewardship. These early connections not only enhance well-being but also foster more compassionate, resilient children prepared to contribute to a diverse and interconnected world.
