Effective Parenting Techniques

Play and Learn

For toddlers, playing is learning. Having their parents play with them and participate in their learning is crucial for these little ones. These classes will allow parents and their one- to three-year-old children to experience all the delights of playing together while developing motor skills, self-help, and awareness. This reinforces attachment parenting, where the child will begin to feel the comfort and security to try new things with the approval, encouragement, and support of the parent. Pre-literacy is key to this program, with story time, music, art, drama, games, and physical activities designed to build vocabulary and language use. FREE!

Offered in partnership with the Ventura Neighborhood for Learning.
