If you’ ve been in ECFE classes for more than a year or perhaps you have two children and are ready to move beyond toilet learning and toddler tantrums, then this is the class for you!

A Taste of Preschool

A new twist for those young preschool-aged children and their siblings! All children will enjoy classroom activities with their parents, but the fun really begins when parents go to their parenting discussion and the big kids( ages three through five) get to“ practice” going to preschool in the classroom while the younger siblings play in the sibling care classroom. There will be learning activities in small and large groups similar to those in preschool. Discussion topics will focus on helping children learn preschool skills as well as topics that foster growth and development.
