Our program is individualized according to the needs and abilities of the children. We have free play, circle time, crafts, music, outside play, and snacks, all geared for learning. First Kids also has a fall, Christmas, and Valentine’s party. We ask parents to help provide the treats for the parties.
Parents are always welcome to visit. We have a Parent’s Meeting before school starts in the fall. Notes are sent home regularly to let parents know of upcoming events. We use the Brightwheel app as an online form of communication so teachers and parents can contact each other at any time during the day when needed. First Kids also publishes a monthly newsletter informing parents about upcoming events, themes, and special activities.
