The Rainbows Room provides a centers-based approach for hands-on learning. Each center, such as a writing center, dramatic play center, science center and art center, allows your child grow in knowledge, independence, academic skills, relational skills and body management proficiency.
Class-wide circle time also takes learning to a new level of fun. You child will learn his or her numbers, colors, shapes and animals, in addition to information about history, weather and special holidays. Every aspect of learning incorporates Jesus and his unconditional, everlasting love.
Your kiddo learns to sit at the table, sit in a chair and respond to simple directions, such as “Please line up.”
- Two or more set full- or half-days per week. Full-day care is anytime between 6:30AM-6PM. Half-day care is either mornings, anytime between 6:30AM-12PM, or afternoons, anytime between 12-6PM.
What Proud Parents say...
Valerie and Gino Malara
It has been 4 years of pure bliss having our two children in your care. Each and every day, we took comfort knowing that when we dropped our children off in your arms, that your expertise, your mothering, your daily care, your discipline, your faith in God were guiding our children through the day. To the head teachers, thank you for leading our children and the other teachers at such a skilled level. Thank you for always being there for us, answering our questions and concerns, listening to us and teaching us how to work together, with you, as a team for our children. Our children want you to know that because of you, as they embark on their new path as "big girls" it is because you gave them love, attention, tender loving care, and guidance. They have flourished in your care. This is the best center in Colorado and the staff are part of the reason why. You run this center like a business that loves children and it shows in all that you do.

What a wonderful time our family had last night at the "Christmas Program." We would be remiss if we did not commend you and your staff for all the time and effort put into showing all of the families what shining stars our children are! We hope this little note of appreciation helps to express how thankful we are to have wonderful people to care for and enrich the lives of the children and families at the Sonshine Center.
In Christ,
Betsy Malatt
My family and I have been blessed by the ministry of the Sonshine Center and the Preschool teachers. The teachers have such a dedication to their classrooms and to seeing that each child performs to the best of his or her ability. We have had such wonderful crafts completed in the classrooms that we will keep forever. Both of my boys were so grieved to leave the teachers when they were too old to stay. The preschool staff are treasures and we are grateful that they were there to bless our children!
