As children reach the ages of 3 and 4 years old, they are becoming little explorers. Their world is opening up. At this age their minds move quickly and they are processing the world around them through play. Children are also becoming more independent and are increasingly aware of others outside of their families. Created with your preschooler in mind, these workshops tap into the “magic years” of three and four—a time when your child’s world will be dominated by fantasy and vivid imagination.

This free 6-part workshop series is made possible by The Helis Foundation. Our workshops provide engaging arts-based activities designed to instruct caregivers on how to use the arts at home to promote early learning. Lessons are conducted by certified Louisiana Wolf Trap Teaching Artists, who have expertly crafted multi-sensory experiences that foster children’s natural curiosity for learning. After each workshop, children and their caregivers can download our digital Connection Cards for tips on how workshop activities can be continued at home.
