Adults will participate with their child, while discovering how to use math, reasoning, critical thinking skills, fine motor skills, and hand-eye coordination all while using our imaginations! We will have wooden blocks, legos, magnatiles, and many other building materials, big and small, to be engaged and creative with. *There will be small parts. **With limited classroom space and lots of movement in the room, only 1 adult per child.

This is a parent & child class to explore, interact, and see how common items you have at home can be turned into creative, imaginative, and fun learning experiences! Use of natural materials and everyday objects will be used for art, science, fine motor, math, sensory, and play learning throughout the room! *Chokable pieces will be used

ECFE is inviting the whole family to join us for a hayride through the 40 acre pumpkin patch at Lendt's Farm! Once we get on the hay ride the first stop will be the inside of an inactive bee hive to learn how honey bees work. Then we will head over to the pumpkin patch where everyone will get to pick any size pumpkin from the field. The last stop will be to the corn field where everyone gets to pick out one large and one small Indian corn along with one popcorn on the cob! You will receive instructions on how to pop the popcorn too! Picnic tables are available to have lunch or a snack from home, after the hayride. You will also have a chance to play in the corn pit, take some photos in the many, cute photo ops available, and do some extra shopping if you would like.
