Wee Discover-

Wednesdays at 10:30 throughout the School Year

(except during Christmas & Spring Breaks)

Wee Discover is designed for toddlers and preschoolers accompanied by an adult. After reading a simple book, children will do themed activities that include crafts, creative play, simple science and discovery activities. The workshop always includes lots of fun for young children and their accompanying adult, as well as make and take-home activities. Based on the concepts of “Mother Goose Science” for young children, Wee Discover helps children discover the world around them by linking reading a different story each week with hands-on learning play experiences about different themes. Children exercise body motion, hand-eye coordination and grasp the many ways things in the world around us really work by experiencing them. Parents enjoy sharing experiences with their children and meeting other parents. Wee Discover is taught by Karen Brininstool, who has taught at CKM for many years. Free with paid CKM Admission or Membership.
