I worked at a childcare center and when kids turned 3 is when they would start to move on to our preschool rooms so that's just kind of the way I thought too. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-does-a-toddler-become-a-preschooler#post-2153600 Thu, 23 Apr 2015 07:51:48 +0000 mediagirl 2153600@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Is it when they turn 3? Is there an official "turning point?" </p>
