This month we focus on early literacy >> finding ways to integrate fun (and instructional) skill-building into everyday activities. Encourage the children in your life to sing songs 🎶, play with rhyming words 🧩🗣️, and repeat stories they see in books 📚 and in life 🌍✨. Building literacy skills at a very young age is fun and important.

We invite families with young ones to join for a series of three Early Literacy Classes which include FREE Books and activity cards, courtesy of our Nevada County Library partners.

Playgroups for children ages 0-5 and their caregivers are available at our North San Juan FRC, Penn Valley's Williams Ranch School and at our Grass Valley center at the Methodist Church. Join us on Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday and/or Friday at 10AM. Ms. Renee and Ms. Angelly are looking forward to seeing you soon!
