Ladue: Ladue
Parkway: Parkway & Valley Park

Hours will vary for each location. Bag lunches will be provided but please send something for your little one if your child is a picky eater. We know that is an issue that many of our students may experience at this age. We will focus on enrichment in literacy, mathematics and social-emotional learning opportunities instead of IEP goals. However, we want you to know that we will use modification so that the students are successful in completing the activities.

Strategy of the Month
- Hula Hoop (I'm not the best at it but it is still fun to try. They have some at the Dollar Store)
- Wash the car (fun and functional)
- Plant some plants in a pot and check in on them regularly. Don't forget to water them!
- Sit outside and observe nature, observe shapes in the clouds or read a book
- Draw some of the things that you see outside. Maybe even with sidewalk chalk
