About PreschoolRocks.com
PreschoolRocks.com is a free resource for parents, caregivers, and preschool educators offering 2,000+ activities, crafts, science experiments, fitness games, and learning ideas for children ages 2–6.
Founded in September 2006 by Stacey Lloyd in Napa Valley, California, PreschoolRocks.com was built on a single conviction: every family deserves access to high-quality early childhood education content, completely free of charge.
Our Mission
The preschool years are some of the most formative in a child's life. Those first five years shape how children learn, play, and see the world. Our mission is to give every parent and caregiver the tools to make each day extraordinary — without spending a fortune or needing a teaching degree.

Our Founding Editor
Stacey Lloyd founded PreschoolRocks.com after years working directly with preschool-aged children in community education programs. Her background spans hands-on early childhood program coordination, curriculum development, and a conviction that the gap between professional early childhood education resources and what is freely available to ordinary families is both real and correctable. As Executive Editor, Stacey has shaped every section of the site since 2006.
Editorial Standards
Every piece of content published on PreschoolRocks.com is held to a consistent editorial standard:
- Age-appropriate. All activities are evaluated for developmental appropriateness for children ages 2–6 specifically.
- Practically tested. Craft and activity ideas are evaluated against real-world conditions: limited supplies, limited prep time, limited cleanup patience.
- Safety-reviewed. Activities involving materials that present any choking, chemical, or injury risk are clearly flagged.
- Source-grounded. Nutrition, health, and developmental content is grounded in current guidelines from the American Academy of Pediatrics, USDA, CDC, and peer-reviewed research.
