Thursday Thinkers
Learn and play with your little one each Thursday! The day starts in our gym with bikes, playground equipment, and a climbing wall. Next we will head to our early childhood classroom for time to engage with age appropriate activities, art and sensory play. While children continue their play, parents go to the adjoining room for learning, support and fun. The session ends with a circle time. If your child is 6 months or younger they will accompany parents and not need to be registered.
