Build your little one’s self-confidence as children dance, craft and move through our multi-sensory programs. Designed with young brains and bodies in mind, children develop motor skills, cooperation and communication in a nurturing environment. Parents, grandparents and caregivers benefit from social interaction with other grown ups, too!

POP Tots

Music and Movement
Interactive sing-alongs, creative movement exercises, finger plays, puppetry and classic children’s songs tap into each child’s individual expressive ability. From infancy, children are naturally receptive to tempo and rhythm in its musical form. This half-hour program immerses children under five in activities that enhance and support the kinesthetic, linguistic and musical intelligences. Designed for children 5 years old and under. Once a month, participants from the Long Island Alzheimer and Dementia Center join us for multi-generational music and movement.

Kids in the Kitchen
What comes first, second and third when following a recipe? Even the littlest learners build basic math skills through counting, measuring ingredients and sequencing. Participants develop listening skills, expand their palate and gain a sense of ownership as they create their very own snack, start to finish. Our "Kids in the Kitchen" workshops have moved online, where you can gather ingredients and cook with your own family or class. See our cookbook playlist now.
Vocabulary development and math skills are just some of the skills children build as they prepare tasty dishes.
