Welcome to UniversalPreschool.com
We Support: Early learning experiences that emphasize exploration, hands-on activities, and imaginative play - ideally under the loving supervision of functional parents in the safe and enriching environment of home.
We Oppose: The harmful practice of institutionalizing young children in non-parental involved government preschools with passive strangers (even if they do have teaching credentials) who force academic instruction and impose standardized testing.

Today, the demand for childcare that stems from the increasing proportion of families that have both parents in the workforce, along with widely held misconceptions about how young children learn best, and the agenda of special interest groups, have resulted in a national campaign to institutionalize all preschoolers in government funded and/or mandated "universal preschool" programs. While government "preschool for all" programs may be convenient and profitable for adults, we need to stop and consider, "What is best for young children?"
"Why should we submit pre-school children to a system that is unable to successfully teach school-age children?"

"The Deliberate Dumbing Down of America"
This website is designed to provide answers and alternatives to help parents, educators, and policy makers make choices that are in the best interests of young children. As we define it, "Universal Preschool" is NOT a government preschool program. It is really an unheralded worldwide community of loving, functional parents who nurture and teach their young children at home, sometimes with the occasional and thoughtful use of private and co-op preschool programs in their community.
We invite you to explore the research, read the articles, take action, and enjoy the activities with your children that will help them develop their full potential. Here, you can learn how to use the universe as a preschool to help your little one's unique talents flourish and shine, so that they will grow up to be successful, well-adjusted, happy adults. Our goal is to help parents make a better universe, one child at a time.
