Mixed Age Adventures - 21 months-3 years (age as of September 1)
Mixed Age Adventures 21 months -5 years

For parents and their children 2-5 years old Since children are at different levels of development at varying ages, they learn from one another as they play, interact and develop skills. Activities are designed for fun and learning under the guidance of a licensed early childhood teacher. While they develop their social, emotional, physical and cognitive skills, parents meet separately for parent education with a licensed parent educator. For children born Sept 1, 2017 - Nov 30, 2019

Outdoor Explorers
Mixed Age Adventures 21 months -5 years

For parents and their children 3 & 4 years old (as of September 1, 2021) Join us for an outdoor adventure class in our own New Hope Learning Center backyard. We look forward to fostering confidence, creativity, and your child' sense-of-self as we launch into outdoor explorations. We will spend our time moving, playing, and investigating our world. Parents and children will explore activities and materials together and then join an active circle time experience. Children will further their explorations with their teacher while parents engage in a parenting discussion (near the children's outdoor classroom). All classes will be held outside, rain or shine, so families should dress accordingly. For children born Sept 1, 2016 - Aug 31, 2018

Terrific Twos (2-day)
Terrific Twos

Two year olds are growing at high speed. They require guidance and limits as they set out to try new things in their world. Our classrooms allow children to engage all of their senses as they sing, dance, create, build, problem solve, communicate and socialize. Children gain confidence, trust and independence as their parents separate for their facilitator-led parent education, which focuses on child development, parenting and parent-child relationship. You will leave with new ideas that reinforce the weekly classroom activities. Wednesdays, children attend alone. Thursdays, parents and children attend together. Tuition is an annual cost, divided into 8 equal payments. Childcare for siblings is available on Thursday only. For children born Sept 1, 2018 - Nov 30, 2019.
