PLAY GROUP (2.5 - 4.5 ans) 🧸🔴🔵 Parent participation is required in this class This is a "Parent & Child" program designed as a gentle introduction to friendship building and social interactions. Parents will join their child each week, supporting their learning and confidence through playful, hands-on activities such as lego building, group puzzles, friendship circle and story time. Our play group is designed with all children in mind! Everyone is invited to us as we explore the world of STEM. What we achieve: A look inside the class: After that it’s play time! Each week the class will be set up with different stations where the children are free to explore. The stations are strategically set up to allow for a certain number of children to play as well as focusing on a specific developmental need. For example; the children may arrive 1 day to find a partnered puzzle station where they will need to work with a peer to complete the puzzle, a large block building station for 4 where they will need to work together to build the item of the day which will be posted for them, and a group painting station where they are given a theme and each encouraged to add to the design while being mindful of others’ additions. GROUPE DE JEU (2,5 - 4,5 ans) 🧸🔴🔵 La participation des parents est requise pour ce cours. Ce programme “Parent-Enfant” est conçu pour une introduction en douceur à la création d'amitiés et aux interactions sociales. Les parents rejoindront leur enfant chaque semaine et favorisent son apprentissage et sa confiance en lui grâce à des activités ludiques et pratiques telles que la construction de Lego, des puzzles collectifs, un cercle d'amitié et l'heure du conte. Notre groupe de jeu est pensé pour tous les enfants ! Chacun est invité à explorer le monde des STEM. Ce que nous réalisons: Grâce à des jeux pratiques et créatifs, les enfants développent leur motricité fine, leur coordination œil-main, leur communication verbale et leurs compétences sociales dans un environnement ludique. Notre objectif principal est de créer des bases solides sur lesquelles les enfants pourront s'appuyer pour apprendre les couleurs, les formes, les tailles, les notions spatiales et le fonctionnement mécanique, et surtout, apprendre à interagir positivement avec les autres! Un aperçu de la classe: Chaque cours commence par une causerie interactive où les enfants pourront échanger et écouter!! C’est une excellente occasion de développer leurs compétences sociales, de communication et d’interaction. Nous participerons également à des histoires, des chansons et des danses! Ensuite, place au jeu! Chaque semaine, la classe sera équipée de différents postes que les enfants pourront explorer librement. Ces postes sont stratégiquement disposés pour permettre à un certain nombre d’enfants de jouer et répondre à un besoin de développement spécifique. Par exemple, les enfants peuvent arriver un jour et trouver un poste de casse-tête partenaire où ils devront travailler avec un camarade pour le compléter, un grand poste de construction de blocs pour 4 où ils devront travailler ensemble pour construire l’objet du jour qui leur sera affiché, et un poste de peinture en groupe où un thème leur sera proposé et où chacun sera encouragé à contribuer au dessin tout en étant attentif aux ajouts des autres. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Cancellation and make-up policies Early withdrawal fee: In the event of an early withdrawal before the final paid class, a fee of $50 will be applicable. The remaining amount corresponding to the unattended classes will be transferred to your family credit account and can be used towards any activity at our school.

Through hands-on building and creative play, children develop fine motor skills, hand-eye coordination, verbal communication, and social skills in a structured yet fun environment. Our main focus is creating a solid foundation for children to build on while learning about colors, shapes, sizes, spatial notions and mechanical workings while exploring the world around them. We will use each class as an opportunity to build on newfound knowledge - one brick at a time!
Each class begins with an interactive circle time where the children will have the chance to talk and listen! Circle time is a wonderful opportunity to practice social skills, communication skills and interaction skills. We will participate in storytime, songs and dancing as well!-------------------------------------------------
