St. Michael-Albertville Community Education

2 to 5 years Separating with Parent Group A class designed for mixed-age groups, fostering a nurturing environment where children and parents can explore learning through curiosity and play. The class emphasizes the importance of play in cognitive, social, and emotional development, encouraging children to learn at their own pace while providing parents with valuable insights into child development and effective parenting strategies. Activities are tailored to be suitable for various ages, encouraging cooperation and peer learning. Curious Connections nurtures a supportive community of families while promoting joyful learning experiences that benefit both children and parents alike. While children engage in play, parents transition to a separate area for discussion and support. Parents will gain valuable knowledge and strategies and have opportunities to share experiences, challenges, and successes, creating a supportive community with one another. Sibling care is provided for free.
