Education Developmental Playgroup

Overview

A quality early learning environment that promotes cognitive, social, and emotional development for children ages 2 to 5.

Developmental Playgroup meets Tuesday mornings during the academic school year. The Developmental Playgroup is led by a qualified Early Childhood Education Teacher and supported by NMCS’ Case Manager who offers immediate support to the families and provides resources to support families to confidently move forward with their own goals to succeed at home, at school, at work, and in our community.

Every Tuesday, parent and child will be welcomed into a playful and nurturing environment where they will play with others, sing age-appropriate songs, move through music, and listen to storytime—all while developing social skills, problem-solving skills, math skills, and a foundation for reading so they can enter kindergarten ready to learn.
