'Twas the night before Pre-K,
All the classrooms were set,
The students stopped by,
Their teachers they met.

Children will be nestled,
And tucked into bed,
Thoughts of playing and learning,
Will dance in their head.

Early tomorrow,
The first day will be here,
Excitement and jitters,
And some will have tears.

Rest up, little ones,
Get ready to play,
For tomorrow will be,
Our very first day!
