Event Planner: Anuban (Kindergarten) Loy Krathong
Event planning in preschools holds significant importance as it plays a pivotal role in fostering holistic child development and creating memorable learning experiences. These events not only offer a platform for children to showcase their talents and skills but also provide opportunities for social interaction, emotional growth, and cognitive development. Well-executed event planning engages parents, teachers, and young learners in a collaborative effort that enhances the sense of community within the preschool. By carefully organizing and structuring various events, preschools can establish an environment where children thrive, parents actively participate, and lifelong positive impressions are formed.
