We will spend time both indoor and outdoor with the following activities: arts and crafts, music/movement, science exploration, cooking, sensory and water play, bubbles, painting, games and more. Each session starts at 8:45 a.m. and ends at 11:45am Monday through Friday. Parents have the option to enroll their children for one or both 4-week sessions of 2, 3 or 5 mornings per week. Each participant should bring an extra set of changing clothes. Please dress your child for play - we will get dirty, wet and messy. This will be a great introductory class for children who will be entering the Play Garden preschool in the Fall of 2013.
