Greetings from Book Buddies Camp Director, Heather Whitesell!

We look forward to a fun filled summer with authors including Nancy White Carlstrom, Denise Fleming, Nancy Shaw, Cathryn Falwell and Donald Crews. Each author based theme will provide activities focused on the STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering and Math) model. In the Falwell unit, children will experiment with shapes and sizes. Farm life and animals will be explored through the works of Denise Fleming. The Crews and Shaw units encourage children to investigate movement and things that go. Come along for the adventure!

4 Family Center Summer 2015

Book Buddies provides an enriched preschool experience for children ages 2-5. Children enjoy the wonder of familiar and new authors and illustrators with the added dimension of STEM focus, (Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics). Children will discover the excitement of these components in books geared for their ages.

The books of the week set the stage for the activities: science, math, technology, art projects, group time, music, games, outdoor play time, snack time and much more.

Early Childhood Family Education, or ECFE, allows parents to attend class with their children. All classes allow for parent/child interaction and some separation for a portion of the time. Parents discuss child development and family issues with a trained Parent Educator, while the children follow a curriculum planned by licensed Early Childhood teachers.
