District 622 Community Education

(For children birth to 4 years by September 1, before Kindergarten) Join other families with children birth to four years and spend time together participating in age appropriate activities. Parents separate from their children to learn about child development, sibling rivalry, and the effects of media on children. Please register your child, then add parents/guardians as additional attending users. We encourage expectant moms to pre-register your unborn child if you intend to continue the multi-age class after baby is born as there may not be a spot available later. Call 651-702-8411 for more information about registering. We encourage you to register for both semesters (class number-1, class number-2) to hold your spot in the class for the full year.

(For children birth-12 months as of September 1, 2019.) Parents with infants born after 9/1/19 are invited to join at any time. This class includes activities, songs, rhymes, movement and parent discussion with a parent educator and early childhood teacher. Parents and children spend time together exploring toys and participating in classroom activities in a stimulating environment. Non-separating class. Register your child and add parents/guardians as "additional attending users." We encourage you to register for both semesters to hold your spot in the class for the full year.

(For children 18 months-4 years) Children naturally love all three. Early exposure to music has been shown to stimulate brain development. Throughout the early years, children are learning to do new things with their bodies and are learning that movement can communicate messages. Enhance your child's love of music and movement through song, dance, movement and instruments. To top off the fun each week, we will also do messy art projects. You will separate from your child for a portion of each class time.

(For children 2-3 years as of September 1, 2019.) Join other families with children who are two and three years old, and enjoy learning and discovering with your child. Parents will separate from their children to discuss topics such as temperament, handling tantrums and anger, toilet learning, fears and imagination. Please register your child and list parents/guardian as "additional attending users." We encourage you to register for both semesters to hold your spot in the class for the full year.

(For children 12-23 months as of September 1, 2019) Parent-child activities are planned for children ages 12-23 months. Parent discussion topics include child development, eating and sleeping routines, and parenting styles. In Semester I, parent discussion time is held in the classroom and parents gradually separate during Semester II. Please register your child and list parent/guardians as "additional attending users." We encourage you to register for both semesters to hold your spot in the class for the full year.
