Hey Philly Moms! Do you have a 4-5 year old who is preparing for Kindergarten in the Parkside, Belmont, or Mantua area? The Please Touch Museum offers a free program to prepare your kiddo for kindergarten.
The KRE program focuses on preparing children to succeed in school. The 4 part series prepares kids for a typical kindergarten day by practicing routines, introducing homework, and more - all through play! Each session is 90 minutes and requires an engaged caretaker. Upcoming sessions are listed on their site. Apply directly on the PTM's website here.
As we come across resources and local events, we'll share them here on our blog for local Philadelphia based area moms and caregivers.
Comments will be approved before showing up.
