Each week we will focus on different important competencies such as following directions, fine motor skills, and positive social and emotional behavior. We will reinforce academic foundations: letters, colors, numbers and shapes with games and activities and we will share stories, books and fun.  

To get the most out of this program we encourage participants to attend all 4 sessions independently. Parents and caregivers are asked to wait in the library. Family members are invited to attend our graduation ceremony on August 3rd.
