This Early Years Creative Play Program (4 years and under with caregiver) is designed to support the exploration and expression of young children and provide the stimulus and acceptance for multiple ways of knowing and being. Having the caregiver present is a wonderful way to journey in this process and becomes a unique learning journey for the adults as much as the children.

Further Notes
Our program is rhythmic, children who have been coming feel the rhythm of each part and sing along and participate in the process.
For some children, the free play time is just enough and after snack, wish to go home. This is 100% fine ! We never force children to take part in anything. If a child is crying a lot, we suggest taking them outside or into the garden or even going home to provide a safe space to understand what his/her need is. This also protects the space of the other children in the studio so that our connection remain harmonious and peaceful together. We also encourage soft talking (between adults) and respectful focus on the space as a place first and foremost for the children. Of course, meeting new friends and sharing is also important but we suggest exchanging contacts so that you can get to know each other outside of YC if you so desire.
We wholeheartedly look forward to supporting your child and you in creative development and well-being and building a community of kindness all around.
