What a phenomenal opportunity to engage with our older generation. For several years now, we have been meeting at the Little Falls Care Center, hosting our class right alongside the residents. We start the class with a circle time filled with songs, stories and fingerplays. The parents then step across the hall to have a cup of coffee and discuss parenting. All the while, your child is lovingly cared for by our licensed staff. Shortly after, we combine, bringing the residents in for a snack and juice with all of us. When we break out the projects, you will find the residents painting, playing playdough and stacking blocks right alongside your child. It’s a precious opportunity for all involved to enjoy each other's company and learn from each other. *New in 2024-2025 All families are welcome. No one will be denied participation due to inability to pay. In order to allow attendance by all families a sliding fee scale has been developed. Fees are collected at the beginning of each semester (twice per school year).
