Mother Goose Program

3/3/2015

 
Mrs. Farber and myself have worked to get a Mother Goose program into the school to benefit those little peeps that are not yet attending Kindergarten but will in the future. It is an awesome program and I can't recommend it enough if you have small children at home. Parent-Child Mother Goose is a one hour, eight week research based program that focuses on sharing with the parents the power of traditional rhymes, songs and stories which builds language and literacy skills and fosters attachment.
Some of the benefits of the program are:
Children
  • become familiar with school environment and following directions
  • show a marked improvement in language, pre- literacy and cognitive skills
  • enjoy regular face-to-face time with their parent(s)
  • gain self-esteem
  • develop social skills
Parents
  • gain confidence as learners and parents
  • greater knowledge of community resources
  • increased understanding of typical child development
  • learn appropriate alternatives to physical discipline
  • develop a network of friendships and support
  • see how their children interact with other children
  • No cost
The Mother Goose program focuses on children under the age of 5 but families are encouraged to attend. There is a limit of 15 family spots available and you are required to sign up through BEST. You do NOT have to have a child attending BEST to participate so please spread the word and help make this program a success so we can sponsor it again next year.
