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. For a two day option, see
“A Taste of Preschool PLUS” on page 9 (side column).

ECFE 2.0
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! As you transition from parenting little
ones to bigger kids, it’s time to shift discussions to a focus on preschool
and early elementary school parenting. Topics may include kids and money,
negotiating friendships, organization ideas for parents and more.
