Nature and Curiosity (3-5yr) Separating
This is a separating class (child and caregiver spend time together and apart).
The age range listed for this class is based on the child's age on the date the class session begins.
This fall along with a Kroening Naturalist, we will observe seasonal changes to enjoy nature's beauty. We will learn about native plants, the Mississippi River, snow on trees, mammals, animal habitats, and songs of birds. Caregiver education will explore how to lead your child's nature learning.
A limited number of Infants 0-4 months are welcome to stay with caregivers during discussion time. Please enroll your young infant only in the Sibling Care option. NOTE: These young infants will remain with the caregivers during discussion time.
ECFE classes are priced on a sliding fee schedule based on family income. Please choose the fee that best fits your family budget.
A 10% surcharge will be applied to fees for Non-Minneapolis residents.
