School Age

Guiding children to experience their world and pursue their interests
Our school-age program recognizes the growing physical, intellectual, and social competence of older children. Eager to explore the social world and discover how the adult world works, school-age children thrive on challenges, friendships, clubs, and responsibility. They want to make things, build things, act out new dramatic possibilities, explore computers and books, construct imaginary worlds and most important, not be treated like "little kids." Read More

Story Cards

You Will Need:

Large size index cards magazine pictures or funny card pictures

Directions:

Creat story cards by gluing pictures from magazines or greeting cards onto the index cards. Tell the child these are story cards and we are going to make up a story about them. Start by asking questions like; What do you think happened here? or How do you think this person(or animal) feels? What are they doing? What will they do next? Help out a little if needed.

Tip:

Simple pictures of people making funny faces or in unusual situations make for good stories. Try to use a variety of images.
