LET’S PLAY (2-4 YEARS OLD)

Let’s Play is a one hour fast paced program where children interact with others while learning new skills and how to regulate emotions. The program is designed to create a sense of community, develop friendships, play side by side and tackle cooperation challenges. There’s plenty of time to improve a child’s communication, vocabulary and increase their memory. Let’s Play is an excellent opportunity to develop social and emotional maturity and enhance their confidence in themselves.
