Calling all 4-6 year olds who are ready to create! Children can join for a half-day or full-day adventure!
Monday, 4/8:
9 AM- 12 PM- Little Chefs
12:15 PM-3:15 PM- Colorful Creations
Children who are registered for both the AM and PM class will be supervised from 12 to 12:15 to eat lunch.
Little Chefs:
Have fun and learn some basic cooking/baking life skills. We will be creating different treats each week while learning together.
Our young chefs will learn the necessary skills needed for cooking. We will focus on safety in the kitchen, reading, following simple recipes, measuring ingredients, familiarization with kitchen equipment and tools while creating tasty treats.
Come share my passion for cooking!
Colorful Creations:
Let’s get creative and have some fun!
Children will explore a variety of materials during the creative process and learn art techniques through modeling and actively using their imagination. Children should bring a large shirt or smock for art activities.
Children should bring a nut free snack and water. Children who are staying for the full day should bring a nut free lunch and will eat between classes. Families must register for both classes if their child will be staying for the full day. This is a drop off program.
Registration will close on 4/3. Class full? Please register for the waitlist so we can gauge interest for additional classes!
