What to expect at your session

Parking:

You can park in any lot on the church property. You will see a gated outdoor play area, you will enter the gate to get to our classrooms (our door will have a Growing Patch sign and welcome sign). Once in the building, the restrooms are to the left.  There are also hooks on the wall by the restrooms.  You are welcome to hang any bags here or you can bring them in the classroom.  If you bring it in the classroom, please make sure it is out of the way so the children have space to move around. 

Class:

Please plan to arrive no more than 5 minutes early.  We will have themed activities out before class and for the first 10 minutes of class that the children can complete.

If you have a younger child that is not in the age range for the class, they are welcome to come with you.  They can be in the class with you and their sibling, but they will not be given the activities to complete.  You will need to keep the younger child with you at all times.  Our classrooms and materials are not intended for children out of the age range of the class.  

Once class begins, we will sit together in circle time.  We ask that all grown-ups sit with their child.  This is a great opportunity for you to interact with your child to increase their engagement and understanding of the concepts.  If you are not able to sit on the floor, we do have a few chairs and a bench seat available to sit on.

All of our classrooms are upstairs.  We have a main classroom for our music & movement, crafts, and read alouds.  Then, we have another classroom set up with our imaginative play centers.

Again, for all activities, please remain with your child.  We appreciate your cooperation and understanding.  We look forward to a fun filled experience for everyone!
