Children's Day Out (CDO): 9:05 am- 2:35 pm
For children who are one, two, and three years old by September 1st.
Classes offered twice a week on either Monday/ Wednesday or Tuesday/ Thursday
​
CDO classes are times of rich, developmentally appropriate play. Children will engage in dramatic play, sensory activities, art, stories, Bible Time, music, and outdoor play in a nurturing environment that allows children to thrive. Teachers will lovingly guide children as they work on their social and emotional development; learning to separate from parents, beginning to empathize with others, making transitions, and practicing self-control. Children will eat lunch in the classrooms and nap in the afternoon.
Children will...
-
develop large motor skills through activities such as jumping, dancing, and playing on the playground.
-
develop fine motor skills by playing with playdoh, puzzles, painting, and drawing.
-
develop language skills through singing, dramatic play, and listening to stories.
-
hear the word of God through weekly Bible Time, memory verses, prayers, and through the modeling of our teachers.
-
experience the joy and wonder of the natural world on our beautiful outdoor playground.

It is important to us that ECP students experience God and the grace of Jesus. Each week the children in the Early Childhood Program get to participate in Bible Time.
