DD is an Oct bday; we have a Sept. 1 cutoff. SO, she did a once/week class this year from age 3 to 3 1/2. She will be in regular preschool starting in the fall and will end up in it for 2 years because of her late bday. She is doing the 3 year old program this year (even though she turns 4 shortly after it begins) and the 4 year old program next year (turning 5 shortly after).
dd started preschool at 2 1/2. she was in a mother's morning out program from 18m to 2 yr 4m. That was a drop in program at a church and it was only so I could get errands done while having two babies 19 months apart. she loved it. she loves her preschool too.
L will be starting at 2 1/2. She will go Thursday and Friday for 3 hours. It is more for social interaction than anything else. It will also give me a little break since I will have 3 kids when she starts.
3yrs old--technically she couldn't start regular preschool until this Fall (she missed the cutoff by 3 days) but I put her in a "Young 3s" program last Spring. She did Mother's Day Out the Fall before that.

At age 2 he went MWF, at 3 he is going 4 days a week and the 4 year old pre-k is 5 mornings a week. (all were mornings until 12 or 1, depending on if we signed him up for lunch or not)

Dd started at 2.9 and she goes M-F full days and extended care. She attends a prek-8th grade Catholic school. She loves it but it was a long day for her in the beginning. Now she has adjusted and she loves it. It is a full curriculum. They get standards based report cards 2x per year as well as parent/teacher conferences.
Re: How old was DC when they started preschool?
3 years and a month (exactly, I think - his birthday is 8/2 and I think school started on 9/2 after Labor Day).
He's just about the youngest in his class, which worries me a little.
DD started preschool at 2 1/2, but I don't really consider it preschool until age 4.
