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.

Open Enrollment for the 2025-2026 school year begins Monday, February 24, 2025 at 8:30 am!
**PUBLIC ENROLLMENT FOR THE 2025-26 SCHOOL YEAR BEGINS FEBRUARY 19, 2025**
Outdoor Classroom
Research shows that children who spend extended unstructured time in the outdoors gain many, many benefits. Just a few of those benefits include greater cognitive growth, fewer behavior problems, decreased obesity, better social skills, and reduced anxiety.
In addition to traditional climbing structures and riding toys, we have added construction zones complete with lots of open ended building materials (children can often be found building forts and hide-outs), musical instruments for impromptu performances on our outdoor stage, art easels, weaving looms, open ended water pumps, large scale magnetic walls to be used with ramps for discovering concepts such as slope and gravity, a mud kitchen for making mud pies, a woodworking area, and much more. (CDO has a scaled down version of this to meet the needs of the younger child.)
We have been working hard to transform our playground into a true outdoor learning center and are excited about the strides that we have made.
All children at ECP get to experience this wonderful outdoor area daily, so dress your children accordingly!
