Join us for our VIRTUAL program on Zoom. Families enjoy stories and activities designed to encourage brain development and early learning practices. Each week, we explore a different theme: READING, TALKING, SINGING, PLAYING, MOVEMENT, and EMOTIONS. We read books, sing songs in Spanish and English, dance, learn a word in American Sign Language, and more! Parents and caregivers will learn how to use these practices to develop their children’s oral language and pre-reading skills. This program has an ASL interpreter and a fluent Spanish speaker. Zoom link is sent to registered emails. You only need to register once and then you will be added to our mailing list.
