Classes and Camps for Kids

Kids Day Out (sometimes known as Parents’ Day Out or Mother’s Day Out) programs are a great way to introduce your little one to the classroom . . . and get some “me time” back into your life, too! Kids play, learn and socialize with their peers in a preschool-like setting. This is a great first class experience for young children.

Many programs provide you the flexibility to choose the days and times that work best for you. With flexible scheduling, children can maximize their fun while keeping the cost at a minimum. Some programs begin with infants, while many others start around two years old.
