Bear Country Preschool & After School Program Bear Country was founded in 1987. It has since come to be known as Merced's premier child learning center for day-time and afterschool enrichment.

Bear Country's programs and services offers children the opportunity to learn & develop in a happy, secure, creative and stimulating enviroment. Physical, social, emotional and intellectual aspects of each child must be allowed to develop to its fullest. Our goal is to share our love, skills and knowledge with your child and to give them the best beginning possible in preperation as they enter and advance through school.

Grandparents Day at Bear Country Preschool

Happy Friday, Families!
We had such a wonderful Grandparents Day this morning. The children sang for their grandparents, filling the room with smiles and happy tears. Afterward, everyone enjoyed spending time together — making crafts, taking photos, and celebrating the special bond between grandparents and their little ones.

Our tables were decorated with bright, cheerful Grandparents Day centerpieces, and the classrooms were full of laughter, conversation, and sweet moments. It was beautiful to see grandparents helping with activities, sharing stories, and enjoying time with their proud grandchildren.

Thank you to everyone who joined us and helped make the morning feel so meaningful. Celebrations like this remind us how special our Bear Country community truly is.

Wishing you all a restful and happy weekend.
