Early Literacy Development & Problem Solving Through songs and flash cards, kids in Great Futures Club

learn the days, months, colors, letters and numbers. Members learn to write their names letter by letter and

explore counting, sorting, and recognizing patterns. Puzzles and learning games are also a part of the daily curriculum

Creative Expression & Building Social Skills

Children have opportunities to play, share, and explore with their peers through free play, circle time, and group games.

Singing songs, acting out dramatic plays, and participating in arts & crafts are just a few of the ways that kids can tap into

their creative sides while bonding with their peers.

Environment & Technology Exploration Blocks, Legos, and building gears/links are all made accessi-ble to the children so they can experiment with and explore

physics by engineering simple machines and structures. Members also have dedicated time in the technology center

to play computer based learning games.

Developing Healthy Habits Every member of Great Futures Club is provided with a FREE, balanced lunch daily! Kids have gym time and

(weather permitting) outdoor time on the playground each day to get them up and active.

For an additional fee, members can sign up for a weekly, one hour Creative Movement Class where they learn the

basics of ballet, tap, and tumbling. Participants in Creative Movement will also perform in our annual Dance Recital!
