Preschool in Columbus, OH 43212
For nearly 35 years Trinity United Methodist Preschool (TUMPS) has provided a loving and nurturing environment to meet childrens spiritual social emotional intellectual and physical needs.
TUMPS is a play-based preschool. Play enables children to make sense of their world to develop social understanding expand their language skills and learn basic math concepts. At TUMPS children mature from solitary play to parallel play to cooperative group play. These are important social stages for later life challenges.
TUMPS is a Christian preschool open to families of all faiths. We lead children in a simple prayer each day. We discuss the wonders of Gods Creation and how we can respect it and each other.
