Parent and Child
When you are the parent of an infant or young child, finding and building your community becomes so important. Our Parent & Child class gives parents or caregivers and their children, from infancy to 36 months, the opportunity to connect. It is a great way to share parenting experiences and support young children in building a safe bridge to their expanding world.
Beginning Social Interaction in a Safe, Healthy Environment
Join us as we work and play together, celebrate the seasons, and enjoy songs, stories, and finger games. Seasonal crafts and activities include felting, sewing, and making simple dolls and toys.
Daily Rhythm
We follow a rhythmical structure of work and imaginative play to develop skills for healthy social interaction. Activities include guided conversation, hand crafts, circle songs and verses, along with classroom and outdoor free play.
Class Information
We typically offer Parent & Child classes weekly during the school year, in three sessions: fall, winter, and spring. Parents are welcome to attend one meeting at no cost to try it out. Registration is on a first-come, first-served basis. Parents registered in an earlier session receive priority for re-enrollment in subsequent sessions.
Program fees include supplies for craft projects and any written literature.
The Young Child
As the parent of a young child, you no doubt look for a little inspiration from time to time.
Our experienced Parent & Child teachers offer their insights, reflections, and suggestions in "The Young Child."
