Building social & critical thinking skills & connecting thru creative making. Little Me Studio is Kankakee County’s premier children’s activity space offering amazing materials-based and developmentally appropriate children's art enrichment classes and camps for ages 9 months to 12 years. Our most sought after program - Preschool Transition - is a 2-hour class utilizing a "whole child" approach focusing on preschool readiness skills such as: - self care (independent toileting and opening lunch materials) - communicating their needs - attention and concentration - play and social skills (taking turns, sharing) - following directions (walking feet, inside voices) - adjusting to a routine - separation from primary caregiver. This play-based program is a great first place to start and a wonderful stepping stone to your child's full-time educational endeavor. Our Montessori Pre-Primary Program introduces children age 4-6 (3 y/o with instructor approval) to the Montessori Method, focusing on the development of the whole child ~ intellectual, social/emotional, and physical ~ through directed and independent hands-on learning opportunities and by supporting their individual interests and ability levels while strengthening motivation, promoting attention, and encouraging responsibility. Simply pick a theme, select an activity and number of guests and we will take care of the rest! We set up, provide instruction, and clean up so all you have to do is sit back and enjoy the fun.
