Early Learning Readiness:
The YMCA's Early Learning Readiness Program helps to prepare your child for Pre-K and continued learning. ELR provides a stimulating environment for children to play and learn while developing the physical, verbal, and social skills they'll need to successfully begin school.
This program is provided free-of-charge.
An informal setting with multiple "play" stations allows both children and adults to learn how to encourage learning and skill-building at home.
The goal of ELR is to help provide children preschool preparation including cognitive, physical and social skills they need to be school-ready. Because children learn by playing, our classes feature age-appropriate activities that encourage children to problem-solve and think creatively. And because adults attend the classes too, you'll be an integral part of your child's learning and enjoyment.
