Gonzales

Meeting Room 3

Enjoy farm-themed learning fun as we gather eggs, ride pretend horses and play games.

Yee-haw, it’s time for barnyard fun! Gather eggs from our pretend chicken coop, pretend you’re the farmer with miniature animals and trucks, and take turns riding on our pretend bouncy horses. Practice sorting in the pompom barn, pin the tail on the cow, take aim and toss the beanbags, and more. This playful program encourages fine motor skills, matching, sorting, movement, and imagination. Help your little learner explore each station at their own pace.
