Hopkins Community Education

Welcome to Little Explorers, where children and their caregivers join together on a journey of discovery and fun through playful exploration. Designed for curious minds and active bodies, these classes offer a stimulating environment that allows you to connect with your child, meet new families, and learn with each other in a non-separating ECFE format. Each class will have a licensed Parent Educator and licensed Children's Teacher present that will provide opportunities for discussions and connection among the caregivers and the children present. 

Little Science Explorers, is an interactive class designed especially for curious toddlers and caregivers, centered around science. Through simple experiments, sensory activities, and playful exploration, we’ll discover how the world around us works. Toddlers will begin to develop critical thinking skills, sensory awareness, and a love of learning in a supportive and playful environment. 

Little Messy Art Explorers, is an interactive class designed especially for curious toddlers and caregivers, centered around art and sensory play. We will explore the different ways our children create art with projects and play that use different art supplies and sensory experiences. Toddlers will begin to develop fine and gross motor skills, sensory awareness, and a love of creative play in a supportive and playful environment. 

NOTE: Sibling Care is offered, with limited spots available - Sibling Care is for ages 6 months - 5.5 years at Meadowbrook and Harley Hopkins Family Center.
