Winter/Spring  Session

 2008 CLASSES

 

Village Classes for ages Birth-18 months

Village is a program geared for babies from birth to 18 months who attend class with a parent or caregiver. It's developmentally appropriate for multi-age development, since babies develop at very different rates. The curriculum gives alternative ways for multi-age participants to take part in every activity. Lap babies, crawlers, and walkers each work at their own unique pace.  Older siblings are not appropriate for this class as they detract from the babies' experience. Hands on with baby safe instruments and materials. 

On Tuesdays and Fridays    Two 6 week sessions are offered. Many people sign up  for both sessions 1 and 2. 

Session One is Cock-A-Doddle-Moo!      Session Two is Dew Drops
