Extended Day and Mini-Camp

Early Drop-off or Extended Day
This option is perfect for working parents or others who need it. Parents or care-givers can drop off a child as early as 8 AM. Children are supervised and involved in activities until the regular class begins. The Extended Day option is available for children in the Three�s and Four�s. The children bring their lunch and enjoy socializing with their friends. Each day a different Enrichment activity is offered such as:

Monday - To Infinity & Beyond: Blast off with us as we learn about outer space. We'll have fun as we examine planets, stars, comets, rocket ships and more.
Tuesday - Mini-Masterpieces: Every child's individual creativity is nurtured as we explore and experiment with a myriad of art media (charcoal, oil pastels, watercolor and more!)
Wednesday - Fun & Games: Our afternoons will be filled with variety and fun as we encourage cooperative play usuing hoops, balls and parachutes as well as songs, dances and other activities.
Thursday - Cooking Around the World: Using stories, songs and food we'll visit a different part of the world each week. The children will be chopping, mixing, stirring, and measuring while learning the culture and cuisine of various locales.
Friday - Kabbalat Shabbat: We get ready to welcome Shabbat with stories and songs. Each week we make a fresh challah to take home.

Breakfast Club: (8:00-9:00 am) Need to make the 8:15 train or be at the office early? Come to school early; we'll have breakfast and play together. Please inquire about costs.

Kinderstars
Our kindergarten enrichment class is the perfect enhancement for half-day kindergarteners. We start at 9 AM for afternoon kindergarteners or at 12 PM for morning kindergarteners. The Kinderstars curriculum adds challenges in the areas of math, science, group problem solving, literature, music and art and offers varied experiences and activities to encourage the child�s social, emotional and cognitive path.

Summer Fun
The Thelma K. Reisman Preschool mini-camp is six weeks of fun and games including water play, nature activities, arts and crafts and music. Activities move indoors when the weather is unpleasant. Children who are 2 years old to 5 years of age are welcome. Hours vary by age group. Please call for details.
