On My Own


On My Own is a transition class to independence. Much like our Parent Tot program the children will learn through play and socialization. Young children’s ability to absorb knowledge from their surroundings, as well as their tireless interest in manipulating materials makes this class perfect for the busy and curious toddler.

Each group meets twice each week for two hours , and includes free play, music, snack, stories and creative movement. It is also an excellent introduction to the school setting for children who will begin preschool in the fall.
