Boyer’s Toddler Playgroup Program: Come for the learning, discover the magic, stay for the community.

June 25, 2024 by lindsayjohnson Leave a Comment

At Boyer, children and their caregivers explore, imagine, learn, and grow together in a nurturing and supportive environment. Our classes offer a play-based curriculum structured with age-appropriate activities, materials and routines. Research shows that play-based education encourages self-exploration, conflict resolution, and provides critical learning skills in resilience, confidence, and more – all while joyfully having fun!

During class, parents will gain priceless knowledge from our experienced educators. Learn how to support your child through transitions, social interactions with peers/less-familiar adults, and encourage active participation in learning routines, trying new things and making safe choices.

In addition, Boyer’s close-knit community is unrivaled. Families gain a foundation for growth, a heart for inclusivity, a joy for learning, and friendships that extend years beyond the classroom.

Interested in joining us? Please contact Kimberly Kendall, Education Department Manager, at kimberly.kendall@boyercc.org or call (206) 325-8477 to learn more and schedule a tour.
